A heavy, rounded sans with broad, compact proportions and smooth superelliptical curves. Strokes are monolinear and blunt-ended, with squared-off counters and softened corners that keep forms geometric rather than calligraphic. The lowercase has a sturdy, utilitarian build with mostly single-storey constructions, short extenders, and large, open apertures for a bold style. Numerals are wide and blocklike, with strong horizontal terminals and consistent rounding that matches the capitals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong presence and quick recognition are priorities. It also works well for packaging, labels, and sports or team-style graphics that benefit from compact, sturdy letterforms and a friendly geometric finish.
The overall tone is bold and assertive while staying approachable due to its rounded corners and generous curves. It reads as modern and functional with a subtle retro-industrial feel, making it feel at home in punchy, high-impact settings.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with simple geometric construction, balancing toughness and friendliness through superelliptical rounding. Its consistent stroke weight and compact forms suggest an intention to perform clearly at large sizes and in bold typographic statements.
The design emphasizes stable, rectangular silhouettes and even internal spacing, producing a dense rhythm in text. Rounded corners are applied consistently across straight and curved elements, which helps maintain cohesion from capitals to lowercase and figures.
