A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are largely uniform with tight, boxy counters and superelliptical curves that keep bowls and rounds feeling controlled rather than fully circular. The forms favor squared terminals and straight-sided geometry, producing a blocky rhythm; joins are clean and the overall color is dense and even. Lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g,” short ascenders/descenders, and generally narrow apertures that reinforce a condensed, signage-like texture.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where its dense, squared shapes can deliver impact without fine-detail loss. It works well for logos, packaging, sports identities, and wayfinding/signage, especially at medium to large sizes where the rounded-rectangle detailing reads clearly.
The typeface conveys a tough, utilitarian tone with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor. Its rounded-square geometry reads as mechanical and engineered, while the softened corners keep it approachable enough for modern tech or sports branding.
The design appears intended to combine high-impact display weight with a controlled, geometric system based on rounded rectangles, offering a modernized retro look that stays consistent across letters and numerals.
Capitals are especially monoline and modular, with rounded corners acting as the primary stylistic cue. Numerals follow the same squared, compact logic, maintaining consistent width and weight for a stable, display-oriented feel.
