A heavy, compact sans with squared-off curves and prominently rounded corners, giving many letters a superellipse/rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and confident with tight internal counters, and joins often show small notches or ink-trap-like scoops where strokes meet, helping shapes stay open at large sizes. Proportions lean tall and sturdy; curves are controlled rather than geometric-circular, and terminals are blunt with softened edges. Numerals follow the same blocky, engineered logic, with bold bowls and restrained apertures that keep a consistent, dense texture in lines of text.
Best suited to large-scale applications where weight and presence are assets: headlines, poster typography, sports or team identity systems, bold packaging callouts, and high-visibility signage. It can also work for short bursts of emphasis in UI or editorial layouts, but its dense color and compact counters favor display use over long-form reading.
The overall tone is loud, forceful, and utilitarian—more “built” than “drawn.” It suggests athletic branding, industrial labeling, and attention-grabbing headlines, with a contemporary edge that feels engineered and performance-oriented.
The design intent appears to be maximum impact with controlled, rounded-rect geometry—delivering a strong, modern display voice that remains structured and legible through tight counters and ink-trap-like detailing.
Spacing appears relatively tight for such a heavy design, producing a strong, dark typographic color and a compact rhythm. The uppercase reads especially monumental, while lowercase retains the same squared-round DNA, keeping mixed-case settings cohesive and punchy.
