A compact, heavy sans with squared-off, superelliptical curves and noticeably rounded corners. Strokes stay largely uniform, producing dense, solid silhouettes with minimal contrast and crisp, straight terminals. Counters are relatively small and rectangular-leaning, and the overall proportions are tight, giving the letters a tall, compressed feel with strong vertical emphasis. The lowercase follows the same blocky construction, with simplified bowls and sturdy stems that keep texture dark and consistent in running text.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, and large-scale display where its compact width and heavy color can maximize presence. It also works well for bold labels, packaging callouts, and wayfinding/signage that benefit from strong, simplified letterforms.
The font reads as assertive and energetic, with a modern, workmanlike toughness. Its condensed heft and rounded-rectangle geometry lend a sporty, industrial tone that feels at home in bold statements rather than subtle typography.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle forms and uniform stroke weight to create a cohesive, highly legible display voice. The emphasis appears to be on bold clarity and visual density rather than delicate detail.
Round letters like O/C/G and bowls in B/P/R show a soft-cornered, rounded-rectangle logic, while diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) are thick and stable, reinforcing a robust, sign-like rhythm. Numerals match the same compact, heavyweight construction for uniform emphasis alongside text.
