A heavy, blocky sans with rounded-rectangle construction and soft corners throughout. Counters are small and often squarish, producing dense, dark word shapes and a sturdy rhythm. Strokes are largely uniform with subtle shaping, and curves resolve into flattened, superelliptical bowls rather than true circles. Diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y/Z and the numerals) are cut with broad, stable joins, and terminals tend to be blunt and horizontal, reinforcing a compact, engineered feel.
Best suited for high-impact display work such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and bold packaging where dense, rounded-square letterforms can carry presence at a glance. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when strong emphasis is needed, but the tight counters suggest avoiding very small sizes or long reading passages.
The overall tone is bold and confident, with a sporty, utilitarian energy. Its rounded-square geometry adds a friendly, slightly retro flavor while still reading as tough and mechanical. The dense texture makes it feel emphatic and attention-seeking rather than delicate or editorial.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight with a cohesive superelliptical geometry, balancing hard-edged block structure with softened corners for approachability. The goal appears to be a distinctive, compact display voice that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals for branding-forward typography.
Uppercase forms read particularly solid due to tight counters (e.g., O/Q and B/P/R), while lowercase maintains strong presence thanks to the tall x-height and compact apertures. The numerals share the same squared, rounded logic, with wide, slabby silhouettes that keep a consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
