A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle curves and largely uniform, vertical construction. Strokes are thick with crisp, squared terminals, while corners are softened into superellipse-like rounds that keep counters compact. The rhythm is tall and tight, with narrow apertures on forms like C, S, and e, and generally closed counters that emphasize solidity. Several joins show subtle notches and flattened transitions that read like ink-trap-inspired shaping, helping maintain interior clarity at heavy weight.
Best used for headlines and short display copy where dense, high-impact letterforms are an advantage. It fits well in sports and fitness branding, bold packaging panels, venue or wayfinding signage, and poster titles where a compact, industrial look helps maximize impact in limited space.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, blending a utilitarian industrial feel with a retro display voice. Its compact openings and tall stance give it a commanding, punchy presence suited to attention-grabbing settings rather than quiet text work.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with controlled, rounded-rectilinear geometry, prioritizing a strong silhouette and compact counters for forceful display typography. The shaping suggests an effort to keep interior spaces readable while maintaining an aggressively solid, condensed overall color.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, engineered geometry, and the numerals follow the same sturdy, squared-off logic. The overall silhouette stays disciplined and modular, producing strong word-shapes with pronounced vertical emphasis.
