A tightly condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) bowls and softly chamfered corners. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, producing dense counters and a compact color on the page. Curves tend toward squarish arcs rather than true circles, and joins are sturdy and closed, giving letters a built, modular feel. The lowercase shows a large x-height and short ascenders/descenders, keeping words visually level and space-efficient. Numerals follow the same blocky, rounded-corner construction for a consistent, sign-ready texture.
Well suited for headlines, posters, and big typographic statements where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from dense letterforms and sturdy shapes. For longer passages, it will work best at larger sizes with added spacing to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with an industrial, poster-ready presence. Its condensed proportions and squared-round shapes evoke retro athletic and workwear graphics while staying clean and contemporary. The rhythm feels punchy and compact, optimized for impact over delicacy.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight in minimal horizontal space, pairing a condensed structure with rounded-rectangle geometry for a robust, modern-industrial look. The consistent stroke behavior and compact lowercase proportions suggest an emphasis on headline performance and strong silhouette recognition.
Because the counters are tight and the strokes are very heavy, the face reads best with generous tracking and ample line spacing, especially in longer settings. The squarish round forms and narrow apertures create a strong, uniform silhouette that holds up well in short phrases and large-scale typography.
