A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are largely monoline, producing an even, poster-like color, while counters are narrow and vertically oriented, reinforcing the condensed rhythm. Terminals are blunt and squared-off, and bowls and shoulders resolve into superelliptical curves rather than true circles. The overall fit is tight with tall, straight-sided forms and simplified joins that keep shapes sturdy at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, logos, posters, packaging, and wayfinding where strong presence and tight horizontal economy are desirable. It also works well for sports graphics, labels, and UI callouts when used at larger sizes where the narrow counters remain clear.
The tone is bold and utilitarian, with a subtle retro-industrial feel reminiscent of stenciled labeling, athletic titling, and mid-century signage. Its rounded corners keep it friendly enough for contemporary branding, but the dense, vertical proportions read assertive and functional.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint, using superelliptical, rounded-rectangle forms to balance toughness with approachability. It prioritizes a consistent, industrial rhythm and bold silhouette for display-led typography.
Distinctive rounded-rectangle motifs show up across both uppercase and lowercase, creating a consistent, engineered texture in words. Numerals match the same compact, squared geometry, and punctuation appears robust and weight-matched, supporting loud headlines and short bursts of text.
