A heavy, wide display face built from squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) bowls. Strokes are mostly monoline in feel but show deliberate cut-ins and sharp notches at joins and terminals, creating stencil-like separations and ink-trap behavior. Counters are compact and often squarish, with a strong horizontal emphasis and low-contrast interior openings that keep the silhouettes dense. The uppercase and lowercase share a chunky, engineered rhythm; numerals follow the same blunt, cut-terminal logic for a cohesive, modular texture in text.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, posters, and bold branding where wide proportions and compact counters can deliver impact. It also fits packaging and signage that benefits from an industrial, cut-terminal look, and works well for sports-leaning identities or energetic promotional graphics.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, with a retro-industrial flavor that recalls athletic, arcade, and mechanical labeling aesthetics. The cut-ins add a technical, fabricated character, making the font feel rugged and performance-oriented rather than refined or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight and presence while maintaining a structured, geometric system based on rounded rectangles. The strategic notches suggest an aim to add character and improve clarity at joins, giving a manufactured, technical edge to otherwise smooth, blocky forms.
In paragraph settings the dense interiors and frequent notches create a distinctive striped texture, especially across letters with horizontal joins and rounded bowls. The font’s strong silhouettes read best at larger sizes where the internal cuts and tight apertures remain clear.
