A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and an overall back-slanted (reverse-oblique) posture. Strokes are largely uniform, with softened corners and squared counters that give letters a punched, stencil-like solidity without actual breaks. Curves are built from superelliptical bowls and terminals, while straight stems and crossbars stay blunt and flat, producing a tight, high-impact texture in lines of text. Lowercase forms are sturdy and simplified, with short extenders and single-story a/g shapes, and numerals match the same chunky, squared-round logic.
Best suited for display typography such as posters, headlines, and punchy editorial callouts where mass and condensed width help maximize impact. It also fits branding, packaging, and sports or streetwear graphics that benefit from a rugged, industrial tone and a distinctive reverse-slanted voice.
The font reads bold and confrontational, with a sporty, industrial energy. Its reverse slant adds a slightly unconventional, attention-grabbing attitude that can feel retro-futuristic and playful while still remaining tough and utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, pairing superelliptical geometry with a reverse-oblique stance for immediate recognizability. Its simplified, block-forward letterforms suggest a focus on bold branding and signage-like presence rather than quiet, extended reading.
The design emphasizes strong silhouettes and compact spacing, which increases visual density and makes short words feel like solid blocks. Distinctive squared counters and rounded corners help maintain clarity at display sizes, while the unusual reverse-oblique rhythm becomes a defining stylistic cue in longer phrases.
