A compact, heavy sans with a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Corners are broadly softened, counters are squarish and open, and strokes terminate with blunt, slightly rounded ends that keep the color dense and even. The lowercase is sturdy and geometric with simple, near-monoline forms; round letters like o/c/e read more like softened boxes, while diagonal letters (v/w/x/y) retain crisp angular joins. Numerals follow the same squared, punchy geometry, with closed forms and small rectangular apertures that favor impact over delicacy.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, product packaging, and brand marks where a dense, chunky silhouette reads quickly. It can also work for sports or event graphics and bold UI labels when used at larger sizes with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is bold and assertive while still approachable, mixing industrial solidity with a softened, friendly edge. It feels energetic and contemporary, with a sporty, headline-forward character rather than a refined editorial one.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum punch with a cohesive rounded-rect geometry, balancing tough, block-like presence with softened corners for approachability and modern appeal.
The design relies on consistent corner radii and boxy internal spaces, which creates strong rhythm in all-caps settings and a distinctly “stamped” silhouette at large sizes. The heavy weight and compact counters suggest it will need generous size and/or tracking to avoid congestion in dense text.
