A heavy, block-based sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly radiused corners throughout. Counters are generally small and squarish, creating strong ink-to-space density and a compact, poster-ready silhouette. Several glyphs show deliberate interior notches or cut-ins (a stencil-like detail) that break up large black areas and add rhythm, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y, Z) are kept broad and sturdy. Figures are robust and geometric, with simplified forms and minimal interior detailing to maintain consistency at large sizes.
Best suited to display sizes where its compact counters and internal cut-ins remain clear—such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and punchy logo wordmarks. It also fits packaging and merchandise that benefit from a bold, industrial-meets-sport aesthetic, especially when high contrast against the background is desired.
The tone is assertive and high-impact, with a sporty, industrial energy. Rounded corners keep it approachable, while the chunky massing and cut-in details give it a tactical, almost machined feel. Overall it reads as bold, attention-grabbing, and slightly playful rather than strictly neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a constructed, rounded-rect geometry, combining approachable curves with dense, blocky forms. The notch-like internal cuts suggest an aim to add character and prevent large areas from feeling flat, while keeping the overall system simple and highly legible at large sizes.
Spacing in the sample text appears tight and display-oriented, emphasizing dense word shapes and strong horizontal texture. The superelliptical logic is most evident in rounded letters like C, G, O, S and the rounded terminals on many stems, giving the set a cohesive, constructed look.
