A compact, heavy display sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry. Strokes are uniform and dense, with tight counters and short apertures that create a solid, poster-ready texture. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles, while verticals dominate and joins stay crisp. Several forms show narrow internal cut-ins and notches that read slightly stencil-like, adding bite and preventing large black shapes from feeling fully sealed.
Best suited to large-scale typography where impact matters: posters, headlines, brand marks, product packaging, and bold signage. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when a condensed, high-density voice is needed, but its tight counters suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of signage and headline lettering. Its condensed massing and squared curves give it a tough, mechanical confidence that feels direct and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in minimal horizontal space, using superelliptical construction and uniform stroke weight to produce a strong, repeatable texture. The subtle stencil-like incisions introduce differentiation and legibility within very heavy, compact letterforms.
The narrow proportions and tight interior spaces amplify weight and contrast at display sizes, while the distinctive notches and boxed curves help maintain character in repeated text. Numerals and capitals follow the same compact, engineered logic for a consistent, hard-hitting rhythm.
