A compact, heavy sans with squared-off proportions softened by rounded-rectangle curves. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing a dense, dark color and strong vertical rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and often rectangular or superelliptical, while joins and terminals stay clean and blunt, avoiding flares or calligraphic gestures. The overall fit is snug and efficient, giving lines of text a compressed, high-impact texture.
Well suited for headlines, posters, and display settings where compact width and strong weight help maximize impact in limited space. It also fits branding, packaging, and wayfinding that benefit from a sturdy, industrial-modern voice and clear, simplified letterforms.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a contemporary, workmanlike directness. Its compact width and dense weight create a sense of urgency and emphasis, reading as assertive rather than delicate. Rounded corners keep it friendly enough to avoid harshness while maintaining a no-nonsense, engineered feel.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual punch and legibility at display sizes in a space-saving footprint. Its rounded-rectangle construction suggests an intention to feel modern and engineered while staying approachable through softened corners.
The design’s superelliptical bowls and rounded interior corners are especially noticeable in characters like O, D, and a, lending a consistent “rounded box” geometry across the set. In text, the tight counters and condensed spacing amplify boldness quickly, making it best when clarity is supported by sufficient size and breathing room.
