A heavy, monoline sans with squared, superellipse-derived curves and consistently rounded corners. The letterforms are built from sturdy verticals and broad horizontals, with compact apertures and large, softly rectangular counters that keep the shapes readable at display sizes. Terminals are clean and blunt, with a generally geometric construction and minimal stroke modulation, producing a dense, poster-like rhythm. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, with the 0 and 8 especially boxy and tightly enclosed.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where impact and shape recognition matter most—posters, branding marks, product packaging, and bold UI labels or signage. It can work for brief subheads, but the tight apertures suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, combining an industrial solidity with a slightly playful, retro-digital flavor. Its rounded corners soften the impact, but the compact openings and strong silhouettes still communicate confidence and punch.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual weight with friendly, rounded geometry—favoring bold, modular construction that stays consistent across letters and numerals. Its superellipse-like curves and compact spacing suggest an aim toward modern display typography with an industrial, athletic edge.
The design emphasizes silhouette clarity over delicate interior space, so spacing and counters feel intentionally tight. The uppercase has a uniform, sign-like presence, while the lowercase retains the same squared geometry and sturdy proportions, keeping texture consistent across mixed-case text.
