A heavy, block-like sans with squared geometry and softened, rounded outer corners. Strokes are thick with subtly modulated joins and terminals, and many forms use wide, rectangular counters and apertures that keep interiors open despite the weight. Curves are built from broad radii and chamfer-like transitions, producing a sturdy, engineered feel. The overall rhythm is dense and punchy, with compact internal spaces and consistent, straight-sided construction across letters and numerals.
Best suited for large-scale display settings where impact is the priority: headlines, posters, and bold branding systems. It can work well on packaging or sports and tech-themed graphics where sturdy, geometric letterforms help create a confident, utilitarian voice.
The tone is bold and assertive, with an industrial, slightly retro-futuristic flavor. Its squared silhouettes and softened corners suggest utility and durability, while the exaggerated mass gives it a sporty, headline-driven energy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through compact, squared forms and softened corners, balancing a mechanical silhouette with approachable rounding. It aims for high recognizability in short bursts of text, favoring strong shapes and consistent construction over delicate detail.
Uppercase and lowercase share a strongly constructed, modular look, with simplified bowls and tight joins that emphasize solidity over calligraphic nuance. The numerals echo the same squared-round treatment, making the set feel cohesive and signage-like at a glance.
