A heavy, block-driven sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broad, softly chamfered corners throughout. Counters are small and geometric, often appearing as rectangular cut-ins or narrow slots, which reinforces a dense, high-impact texture. Strokes stay mostly uniform with minimal modulation, and terminals end bluntly, giving the letters a machined, modular feel. The lowercase is large and sturdy with simple, squared bowls; descenders are short and the overall rhythm reads tight and compact despite the wide stance.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logo wordmarks, sports and team-style branding, and packaging where bold shapes need to hold up at distance. It can work for subheads or labels in layouts that benefit from a compact, industrial display voice, but the tight counters favor medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, evoking retro display lettering with a modern, industrial edge. Its chunky forms and squared curves suggest strength, utility, and a sporty, headline-forward attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through rounded-rect geometry, tight counters, and a compact, modular rhythm—prioritizing silhouette recognition and brandable shapes over delicate detail.
Several glyphs lean on notched joins and inset counters (notably in forms like E, S, and a), producing a stencil-like suggestion without fully breaking strokes. Numerals match the same block geometry, with squared apertures and rounded corners that keep the set visually consistent in large sizes.
