A dense, heavy sans with condensed proportions and a squared-round (superellipse) construction. Strokes stay monoline and weighty, with tight internal counters and blunt terminals that read as clean cut rather than calligraphic. Rounds such as O/C/S are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing a strong, uniform texture in lines of text. Uppercase forms are tall and compact; lowercase follows a straightforward, utilitarian model with single-storey a and g, and generally minimal aperture openings.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports and team identities, packaging fronts, and bold signage. It performs particularly well in all-caps or tight headline settings where a compact footprint and strong silhouette are desirable.
The overall tone is forceful and practical, with an industrial, no-nonsense presence. Its compact shapes and rounded-rectangle curves lend a sporty, poster-like energy that feels slightly retro while remaining clean and contemporary.
Likely intended as a high-impact display sans that maximizes presence in limited horizontal space. The superelliptical rounding softens the mass of the letterforms while keeping a mechanical, engineered look for branding and attention-grabbing typography.
The design creates strong vertical rhythm and a dark, continuous typographic color, especially in all-caps settings. Numerals and punctuation appear engineered to match the same blocky, rounded-rectangle logic, helping maintain a consistent texture across mixed content.
