A heavy, geometric sans with compact, tightly enclosed counters and broad, blunt terminals. Curves are built from large-radius arcs, giving letters like C, O, and S a smooth, rounded mass, while joins and diagonals stay clean and sturdy (notably in K, N, V, W, and X). The overall rhythm is dense and poster-like, with minimal interior white space; the lowercase shows sturdy bowls and short ascenders/descenders, and the numerals are robust and tightly fit for strong silhouette clarity.
Best suited to display roles where maximum visual impact is needed: posters, big headlines, packaging, storefront or wayfinding signage, and bold brand marks. It also works well for short callsouts, labels, and numbers in environments where strong shapes must hold up at a distance.
The tone is loud and confident, prioritizing punch over delicacy. Its chunky geometry and compressed counters read as utilitarian and energetic, with a subtle retro athletic or industrial signage feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a powerful, compact read with simplified geometry and minimal interior detail, optimizing for attention-grabbing titles and bold graphic layouts rather than long-form text comfort.
Round letters appear slightly squarish in effect due to the weight and tight apertures, which increases presence but can reduce differentiation in small sizes. The ampersand and punctuation in the sample text match the same blunt, compact construction, keeping a consistent, no-nonsense voice across mixed-case settings.
