A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like curves. Strokes are uniform and dense, with large, open counters and softened corners that keep the forms from feeling rigid. Proportions are compact with short, powerful arms and terminals, and the overall rhythm is tight and even. Uppercase shapes lean toward simple, architectural constructions (notably the squared-off C/G and the broad, stable E/F), while the lowercase keeps similarly sturdy forms with single-storey a and g and a compact, functional t.
Best suited to headlines and display settings where weight and shape can carry the message—posters, brand wordmarks, packaging, and retail or wayfinding signage. It also works for short blocks of copy, pull quotes, and UI headers where a compact, high-contrast-to-background presence is desirable.
The font projects confident, high-impact clarity with a friendly softness from its rounded geometry. It feels contemporary yet slightly retro in a poster and athletic-signage way, prioritizing bold presence over delicacy. The tone is energetic and straightforward, suited to messages meant to be seen quickly and remembered.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with simple, geometric letterforms softened by rounded corners, creating a bold but approachable voice. Its consistent construction across letters and figures suggests a focus on strong typographic color and dependable legibility in attention-driven contexts.
The capitals sit as strong blocks with controlled curvature, and the numerals match that same compact, rounded-rect logic for consistent color in mixed settings. Round letters like O/Q are more squarish than circular, reinforcing the superelliptical flavor. Overall spacing and silhouettes read cleanly at large sizes, with a solid, uninterrupted texture in paragraphs.
