A heavy, compact display sans with squared, superelliptical bowls and softly rounded outer corners. Strokes are thick with crisp, mostly straight terminals, while counters stay relatively small and rectangular, creating a dense, poster-ready texture. Curves are controlled and boxy rather than circular, and several joins show a slight ink-trap-like notch that sharpens interior corners at large weights. Proportions skew toward wide vertical stems and abbreviated apertures, producing a strong, uniform rhythm across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding moments where boldness and a compact footprint are priorities. It performs well for short bursts of text—labels, signage, and strong typographic lockups—where the dense shapes can read as intentional heft.
The tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with an industrial, workmanlike presence. Its blocky geometry and tight internal spaces read as modern-retro—confident, utilitarian, and built for impact rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through a squared, superelliptical construction that stays clean and stable at very heavy weights. Details like constrained apertures and ink-trap-like interior shaping suggest an emphasis on maintaining definition and legibility while preserving a tightly packed, commanding texture.
The numerals and capitals carry a particularly sturdy, sign-like silhouette, while the lowercase retains the same squared construction for consistency. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) lean toward rounded-rectangle shapes, keeping the overall color even and compact in text settings.
