A heavy, wide grotesk with geometric construction and blunt terminals. Curves are broadly rounded and generously filled, producing compact counters and a strong, even color on the page. Strokes keep a consistent thickness, while joins and diagonals stay simple and sturdy, giving letters a squat, blocky footprint. The overall rhythm is steady and mechanical, with clear, high-impact shapes that read as solid silhouettes at a glance.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, signage, and bold brand marks where a strong silhouette matters more than delicate detail. It can also work for packaging and labels that need an industrial, no-nonsense presence while staying visually friendly.
The tone feels utilitarian and tech-forward, like labeling on equipment or a robust UI display, but the rounded curves soften it into something approachable. Its wide stance and dense interior spaces add a slightly retro, arcade-era flavor, balancing toughness with a friendly, playful edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a stable, engineered feel—prioritizing uniformity, sturdy geometry, and consistent widths for a controlled, system-like texture. Rounded forms and blunt ends suggest an aim to keep the voice approachable while remaining decisively bold and functional.
Uppercase forms present as compact and emphatic, with rounded bowls and minimal detailing. Lowercase follows the same geometric logic, maintaining consistent width and weight so words form a uniform, grid-like texture. Numerals are similarly stout and wide, designed to match the letterforms’ strong, simplified shapes.
