A heavy, blocky sans with broad proportions and pronounced stroke contrast created by wedge-like thinning at joins and corners. The forms are built from large geometric masses with softened curves, producing round counters in O/C and a compact, squared-off rhythm in E/F/T and numerals. Terminals are generally flat and sturdy, while many letters show subtle diagonal shears and triangular notches that act like ink-traps, tightening the interior spaces and adding a cut, engineered feel. Spacing is generous for the weight, keeping counters open enough for display use while maintaining a dense, poster-like texture.
This font performs best in large sizes where the heavy silhouettes and notched join details can read clearly—posters, headlines, sports graphics, bold packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for short UI banners or labels where strong emphasis is needed, but its mass and contrast are primarily optimized for display rather than long passages.
The overall tone is loud, confident, and slightly vintage, with a utilitarian edge. Its chunky silhouettes and sharp join details suggest athletic branding and industrial signage, delivering a punchy, attention-grabbing voice rather than a quiet or delicate one.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive, engineered texture—combining wide, sturdy shapes with contrast created by carved joins. It aims to feel modern-utility with a retro display flavor, prioritizing recognizability and punch in branding and headline settings.
The lowercase echoes the uppercase’s block construction, with single-storey a and g and a robust, rectangular feel across stems. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, matching the font’s billboard-friendly presence and reinforcing a cohesive, logo-ready texture.
