A heavy, rounded-rectilinear sans with compact proportions and softened corners throughout. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls, while straight strokes stay firm and uniform, producing a dense, stable texture. Counters are generally tight and rectangular, with distinctive square-ish inner shapes in letters like O/Q and numeric forms; terminals are mostly flat, with occasional angled cuts that add motion. The lowercase keeps a sturdy, utilitarian build with single-storey a and g, and the overall rhythm reads controlled and highly consistent across the alphabet and figures.
Best suited to headlines and display typography where its mass and rounded-square geometry can read clearly and project authority. It works well for logos, team or sports branding, product packaging, and bold UI callouts where a sturdy, modern sans is needed.
The tone is assertive and workmanlike, with a contemporary, engineered feel. Its chunky geometry and rounded corners suggest durability and approachability at the same time, landing between athletic display lettering and industrial signage.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a controlled geometric system: rounded-square bowls, uniform stroke weight, and compact counters that maintain a solid, cohesive silhouette. It aims to feel modern and utilitarian, balancing hard-edged structure with softened corners for broader, friendlier appeal.
The design favors closed apertures and compact counters, which increases impact at large sizes but can make smaller settings feel tight. The figures are bold and blocky with clear silhouettes, and the Q’s tail and angular diagonals (notably in K, V, W, X, Y) introduce a subtle sense of speed.
