A compact, heavy display sans with a condensed stance and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves resolve into squarish bowls with softened corners, while straight strokes stay firm and vertical, creating a tightly packed, high-density rhythm. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and joins are clean and utilitarian, giving letters a sturdy, engineered feel. The lowercase is simple and robust, with single-storey forms and minimal modulation, and the numerals match the same squared, muscular geometry.
Best suited to headlines and short emphatic lines where a compact, powerful voice is needed—posters, branding marks, packaging titles, and punchy signage. It can also work for UI labels or section headers when space is tight and strong contrast against the background is desired.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a slightly retro, poster-driven energy. Its compressed shapes and chunky presence read as confident and functional, evoking industrial labeling and sports headline aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangular forms to keep the texture consistent and modern while retaining a slightly vintage, display-driven attitude.
The font’s squared rounds keep text lines visually even and dark, producing strong word shapes at large sizes. Because counters tighten in heavier letters, clarity improves with generous tracking and ample size, especially in longer phrases.
