A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and smooth, superellipse-like curves. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with minimal modulation, and terminals are generally flat or softly squared, producing a crisp, engineered silhouette. Uppercase forms are compact and stable with generous counters (notably in O, P, B), while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey feel in key shapes (a, g) and short, practical extenders. Numerals are similarly blocky and legible, with simple, closed forms and clear differentiation.
Best suited to headlines, brand marks, UI labels, and short blocks of text where a compact, high-impact sans is needed. It should perform well in product and tech contexts, signage-style applications, and packaging where sturdy forms and clean geometry support fast recognition.
The overall tone is modern and self-assured, balancing friendliness from the rounded geometry with a utilitarian, technical clarity. It reads as contemporary and direct rather than expressive or calligraphic, making it feel dependable and product-oriented.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, geometric voice with rounded-rectangle curves for approachability, while maintaining a solid, highly legible structure for practical display and interface use.
The rhythm is tight and efficient, with squarish rounds and consistent curves that keep word shapes tidy at larger sizes. Diacritics aren’t shown; the sample emphasizes a strong, headline-ready color with clear interior spaces that help prevent clogging in dense settings.
