A compact, heavy sans with squared-off, superelliptical curves and largely uniform stroke weight. Counters are tight and apertures tend to be narrow, producing dense black shapes and a strong vertical rhythm. The geometry leans toward rounded rectangles rather than true circles, especially in O/C/G and the bowls of B/P/R. Terminals are blunt and clean, and the lowercase keeps a straightforward, utilitarian construction with a single-storey a and g and minimal modulation.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where maximum impact is needed, such as posters, branding lockups, sports or event graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for large-format signage where its compact width helps fit more characters without losing presence.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a confident, poster-like presence. Its rounded-rectangular forms soften the severity just enough to feel sporty and contemporary, while the condensed heft also suggests a slightly retro, industrial attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact typography in a compact footprint, pairing a dense, uniform stroke with rounded-rect geometry for a modern, durable look. It prioritizes silhouette strength and immediacy over delicate detail, making it well matched to attention-grabbing display use.
In text, the dark color and tight counters can cause internal shapes to close up at smaller sizes, while larger settings emphasize the font’s compact width and strong silhouette. Numerals follow the same sturdy, rounded-rect geometry, reading best in display contexts where their dense forms have room to breathe.
