A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions softened by consistently rounded corners. Strokes stay uniform and dense, with broad verticals and tight internal counters that create a strong, poster-like silhouette. Curves tend to resolve into rounded-rectangle forms rather than circular bowls, and terminals are blunt and stable. The overall rhythm is tight and efficient, with condensed letterforms, short extenders, and sturdy joins that emphasize solidity over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a dense, high-impact word shape is desirable. It also works well for signage and packaging that benefit from sturdy, engineered forms and clear presence at a distance. For longer passages, it’s more comfortable when set larger with generous tracking and leading.
The tone is assertive and workmanlike, projecting strength and straightforward clarity. Its rounded-square construction adds a friendly, engineered feel that reads as modern-industrial with a hint of retro signage. The weight and compression give it an energetic, competitive voice suited to impact messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact within a tight horizontal footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep forms sturdy yet approachable. It prioritizes uniformity, strong silhouettes, and efficient spacing for attention-grabbing display typography.
Large sizes show crisp, consistent corner rounding across both uppercase and lowercase, helping the family feel unified. At text sizes the heavy weight and compact counters can reduce airiness, so spacing and size choices will matter for sustained reading.
