A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick with tight counters and narrow apertures, creating dense, high-impact silhouettes. Curves resolve into squarish bowls and superelliptical rounds (notably in O/C/e), while verticals stay straight and firm; terminals are typically blunt with occasional small cut-ins and notches that add articulation. Overall spacing reads compact and the letterforms feel engineered and uniform, with slightly idiosyncratic widths and interior shapes that keep the rhythm from becoming purely monolithic.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and logo wordmarks where its chunky geometry can read cleanly. It also fits signage and sports/club-style graphics that benefit from a sturdy, compact texture.
The tone is bold and assertive with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor—part scoreboard, part stencil-adjacent display. Its rounded squareness keeps it friendly rather than aggressive, while the tight interiors and chunky mass give it a tough, utilitarian presence that feels at home in attention-grabbing graphics.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a rounded-rectangular, geometric voice—combining strong legibility at display sizes with a distinctive, slightly mechanical character. The notched details and tightened counters look aimed at adding personality and preventing large black forms from becoming overly generic.
The numerals and capitals carry especially strong, poster-like presence, and the squarish bowls help maintain consistent color across lines. The dense counters suggest it will prefer larger sizes where interior shapes and notches remain clear.
