A compact, heavy sans with tall proportions and tightly controlled sidebearings. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms, producing squared bowls and corners that feel engineered rather than calligraphic. Strokes stay largely even, with firm verticals and crisp terminals; counters are relatively small and apertures tend to be closed, keeping the texture dense. The overall rhythm is punchy and uniform, optimized for strong silhouette and high presence in short lines.
Works best for headlines, titles, and short emphatic copy where density and impact are assets. Suitable for branding and packaging that needs a sturdy, contemporary voice, and for sports or event graphics where compact width helps fit more characters without losing weight.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, leaning modern and industrial with a sporty, poster-forward attitude. Its compressed stance and chunky shapes give it urgency and confidence, reading more like a display workhorse than a delicate text face.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch in limited horizontal space while maintaining a smooth, rounded-square construction. The intent appears to balance assertive weight with clean, contemporary geometry for modern display typography.
Rounded-square geometry is especially evident in bowls and curves, giving letters a sculpted, machined feel. The numerals match the same compact, heavy construction, supporting consistent headline settings and prominent UI-style labeling.
