A heavy, block-driven sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, creating dense silhouettes and tight interior counters that often read as vertical slots. Terminals are blunt and squared-off, while curves resolve into squarish bowls and superelliptical arcs, giving the alphabet a mechanical, molded feel. The overall rhythm is compact and chunky, with frequent rectangular notches and cut-ins that emphasize a modular, engineered geometry.
Best suited to display settings where impact and legibility at larger sizes matter most—headlines, posters, branding marks, product labels, and bold wayfinding or package callouts. The dense counters and heavy weight make it less ideal for small text, but excellent for short phrases and titling where a sturdy, industrial voice is desired.
The font projects a bold, utilitarian confidence with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor. Its chunky forms and squared rounding suggest machine-made signage, sports titling, and arcade-era display lettering—assertive, functional, and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or lyrical.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a systematic, rounded-rectangular geometry that stays consistent across glyphs. Its notched details and compact counters reinforce a constructed, hardware-like personality aimed at strong display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a strongly unified construction, with the lowercase leaning toward simplified, single-storey structures and squared counters that keep the texture dark and consistent in running lines. Numerals match the same squarish curvature and heavy fill, supporting cohesive headline setting across alphanumerics.
