A heavy, squared sans with generously rounded corners and a superellipse-like construction. Curves resolve into flattened arcs and straight segments, producing round forms that feel more like rounded rectangles than circles. Strokes are broadly consistent with minimal modulation, and terminals are predominantly blunt, giving a dense, poster-forward texture. Counters are compact and often squarish, with rectangular apertures visible in forms like O/0 and B, reinforcing the geometric, engineered look.
This design is well suited to headlines, posters, and large-scale messaging where its strong silhouettes and compact counters read with impact. It can also work effectively for branding and packaging that aims for a robust, contemporary feel, as well as signage and labels that benefit from bold, straightforward forms.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a contemporary, industrial edge. Its blocky geometry and softened corners balance toughness with approachability, reading as modern, sporty, and slightly tech-oriented rather than refined or delicate. The rhythm feels confident and attention-grabbing, suited to messaging that needs to land quickly.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver a modern geometric voice with high visual impact, using rounded-rectangle construction to create a distinctive, engineered personality. The consistent weight and blunt terminals suggest a focus on clarity and punch at display sizes while maintaining cohesive texture in mixed-case settings.
The uppercase is particularly dominant and uniform, while the lowercase retains the same squared, rounded-corner logic for consistency in mixed settings. Numerals match the family’s sturdy build and compact counters, maintaining strong silhouette clarity at display sizes. The sample text shows a tight, impactful color on the page, with shapes staying crisp even in dense paragraphs.
