A compact, heavy sans with squared-off, superellipse-style curves and a strongly uniform stroke presence. The design favors verticality and tight proportions, with broad, flat terminals and minimal modulation, producing a dense, poster-like color on the page. Round letters such as O/C/G are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, while joins stay firm and clean, giving the face a sturdy, engineered rhythm. Numerals and capitals match the same condensed, high-impact structure for consistent texture across lines.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and display typography where maximum impact is needed in limited horizontal space. It works well for branding systems that need a compact, powerful voice, as well as packaging, signage, and promotional graphics where strong silhouettes improve quick recognition.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, with a no-nonsense, high-energy feel. Its compact width and blocky curvature suggest contemporary sports, industrial labeling, and bold editorial headlines rather than delicate or literary settings.
The font appears designed to deliver a compact, high-impact sans voice built from rounded-rectangular geometry, prioritizing bold silhouette, consistency, and space-efficient width for attention-grabbing display use.
Counters are relatively tight for the weight, increasing punch at large sizes while making small-size text feel dense. The lowercase shows simple, sturdy constructions (single-storey a and g) and a straightforward, functional attitude that keeps attention on silhouette and rhythm rather than detail.
