A heavy, squared sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Counters are compact and often squarish, and many joins show deliberate, stepped or notched transitions that give the shapes a cut-in, almost modular feel. Curves are minimized in favor of superelliptic bowls, while terminals tend to be flat and horizontal, creating a strong, even texture across lines. The overall rhythm is chunky and stable, with bold interior shapes staying open enough for display use while remaining tightly packed.
Best used for titles, logos, signage, and punchy short copy where its dense shapes and distinctive notches can be appreciated. It works especially well in sports or industrial-themed branding, packaging callouts, and retro or arcade-inspired graphics.
The tone is assertive and energetic, combining a utilitarian, industrial robustness with a slightly game-like, retro attitude. Its chunky geometry reads as confident and attention-seeking, making it feel suited to bold statements rather than quiet text.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact through chunky superelliptic forms, prioritizing bold silhouette recognition and a distinctive, engineered texture. Its consistent rounded-rectangle logic suggests an intention to feel modern and modular while retaining a retro display punch.
The design emphasizes rectangular geometry in both letters and numerals, with distinctive cut-ins that add character and help differentiate forms at large sizes. The punctuation shown in the sample (e.g., colon, apostrophe) matches the same squared, heavy logic, supporting consistent headline setting.
