A compact, heavy sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry, with broad vertical stems, short apertures, and squared counters softened by generous corner rounding. Curves read as structured and engineered rather than circular, giving O/C/G and bowls a sturdy, boxed feel. Join areas show subtle notches and pinches that resemble small ink-trap behavior, helping tight internal spaces stay open at display sizes. Overall spacing is firm and economical, with strong, even color and clear, blunt stroke endings.
Best suited to large-scale typography where mass and presence are the goal—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and short, high-impact messaging. It can also work for signage or labels when you want a strong, condensed read with durable, block-like shapes.
The tone is forceful and confident, with a utilitarian, workmanlike solidity that also nods to retro athletics and industrial labeling. Its soft-cornered blocks temper the aggression of the weight, keeping the voice bold but approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through superelliptical construction, tight apertures, and compact counters, producing a dense, confident texture. The small notches at joins suggest an effort to preserve interior clarity while keeping the overall silhouette blunt and powerful.
Uppercase forms lean toward wide, stable silhouettes, while lowercase maintains a simplified, compact structure with minimal detailing. Numerals match the same squared-round construction, emphasizing clarity and impact over delicacy.
