A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction and tightly controlled curves. Strokes are thick and even, with softened corners and mostly squared bowls, producing a compact silhouette and strong color on the line. Counters are small and often rendered as narrow rectangular apertures, giving several letters a cutout, almost stencil-like internal detail. Spacing appears firm and economical, and the overall rhythm is steady and uniform, prioritizing solid shapes over open readability at small sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, logos, and packaging where its dense, blocky forms can carry impact. It also fits sports or industrial-themed branding and signage-style graphics, especially when set large with comfortable tracking to preserve the small counters.
The tone is bold and utilitarian with a retro, industrial flavor—confident, assertive, and slightly playful in its chunky geometry. The rounded corners temper the heaviness, keeping it friendly while still feeling mechanical and poster-forward.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver maximum visual weight and a cohesive geometric theme through rounded-rectangle construction, favoring bold presence and graphic consistency over delicate detail. The cutout-like counters add a signature look meant to stand out in branding and title work.
The design leans on superelliptical forms and squared terminals, creating a consistent rounded-rect motif across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The distinctive narrow interior slots become a defining texture in headlines and short phrases, where the dense shapes read as deliberate graphic elements.
