A compact, heavy sans with squared, superellipse-like construction and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, with tight interior counters and short apertures that create a strongly packed texture. Curves resolve into rounded rectangles rather than true circles, and terminals are blunt, giving the face a sturdy, engineered feel. The uppercase is tall and rigid, while the lowercase echoes the same boxy geometry with simplified bowls and minimal modulation; numerals follow the same compressed, chunky rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports graphics, packaging callouts, and bold signage where a condensed footprint is useful. It also works well for labels and UI badges when set at sufficiently large sizes to preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, leaning toward industrial and athletic lettering. Its compressed massing reads assertive and functional, with a slightly retro, poster-like punch that feels built for impact rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle forms to keep the weight approachable while maintaining a firm, structural voice.
In continuous text, the dark color and narrow spacing produce a strong vertical rhythm and high visual density. The rounded-square geometry keeps the face from feeling sharp or brittle, but small counters and closed shapes can reduce clarity at smaller sizes.
