A compact, heavy display sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broadly superelliptical bowls. Strokes are thick and uniform, with corners consistently softened rather than sharply squared, creating a dense, poster-like texture. Counters are relatively small and often vertically oriented, and many joins feel slightly pinched where strokes meet, adding tension to the otherwise smooth geometry. Uppercase forms are wide and steady, while lowercase uses simplified, sturdy shapes and a single-storey “a,” keeping the rhythm tight and highly legible at large sizes.
Works best for large-scale headlines, posters, and campaign messaging where dense black coverage and rounded geometry are desirable. It also suits packaging, athletic or streetwear branding, and logo wordmarks that need a compact, powerful silhouette. For longer text, it is most effective in short bursts such as banners, labels, and callouts.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a friendly roundedness that keeps it from feeling harsh. It reads as energetic and attention-grabbing, suggesting sports, street, or pop culture contexts with a subtle retro flavor.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a geometric, rounded-rectangle voice—balancing toughness and approachability. The simplified lowercase and tight counters suggest an emphasis on bold display performance and clear silhouettes in branding and advertising contexts.
The numerals and caps carry especially strong presence, with broad, stable silhouettes that hold up well in short words. In longer lines, the heavy color and tight internal spaces create a strong visual block, making it best suited to situations where impact matters more than airiness.
