A condensed, heavy sans with a squared, superelliptical construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and corners, and straight strokes dominate the rhythm. Terminals are generally flat and blunt, with subtle corner rounding that keeps the texture compact rather than sharp. Counters are tight and mostly rectangular, giving letters like O, D, and Q a squarish presence, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are sturdy and slightly softened at the joins. The overall spacing and proportions create a dense, poster-ready color with clear, high-impact silhouettes.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display settings where a dense, impactful texture is desirable, such as posters, branding marks, sports and team graphics, packaging, and signage. Its compact width and firm shapes help it hold presence in tight horizontal spaces while still reading clearly at larger sizes.
The font reads as tough and practical, with a retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of athletic lettering, equipment markings, and mid-century display signage. Its condensed heft feels assertive and no-nonsense, projecting energy and control rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in a compact footprint, using squared-round geometry and blunt terminals to create a sturdy, industrial display voice that stays consistent across letters and numerals.
The lowercase follows the same squared-round logic, producing a uniform, engineered feel across cases. Numerals appear similarly compact and blocky, matching the strong texture of the capitals and supporting attention-grabbing headlines.
