A compact, blocky sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like forms. Strokes are heavy and largely monolinear, with softened corners and generous internal rounding that keeps counters open despite the mass. Uppercase shapes are tall and sturdy with squared shoulders (notably in E/F/H) and rounded bowls (C/G/O/Q), while lowercase follows a simplified, single-storey, vertical rhythm with a tall x-height and short ascenders/descenders. Terminals tend to be flat-cut with rounded edges, producing a stamped, display-oriented texture; some letters show slight width variation (e.g., wide W versus narrower I and l) that adds a subtle, punchy cadence. Numerals are equally block-constructed, with the 2/3/5 showing crisp angular breaks softened by rounding, and a squared, robust 0/8/9 set.
Best suited to large-scale display work such as posters, headlines, sports identities, bold packaging, and wayfinding or signage where strong silhouettes and high impact matter. The compact, heavy construction holds up well in short bursts of text and punchy typographic locks, while the rounded corners help maintain legibility in bold blocks of copy.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, balancing toughness with friendly rounding. It reads like modern athletic branding and industrial signage—confident, compact, and attention-grabbing—while the softened geometry keeps it approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through dense, rounded-rect geometry—combining a strong, industrial backbone with softened corners for a contemporary, brand-friendly voice.
Spacing appears relatively tight in text, creating a dense, headline-ready color. The rounded rectangular logic is consistent across curves and joints, which gives the face a cohesive “molded” or “cut-out” feel, especially at larger sizes where the corner radii become a key stylistic signature.
