A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently thick strokes. Curves and corners are softened into superellipse-like forms, while many joins and terminals are clipped or notched, creating a subtle stencil/inline impression without breaking the overall solidity. Counters are tight and often squarish, giving letters a dense, punchy texture; circles read more like rounded squares. Proportions are condensed with tall caps and compact lowercase, and punctuation/dots are large and circular, reinforcing the graphic, high-contrast silhouette against white space.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, logos, poster titles, packaging callouts, and signage where its dense weight and distinctive notches can be appreciated. It can also work for UI labels or badges at larger sizes, but the tight counters and decorative cut-ins suggest avoiding long body copy.
The face reads as retro-futuristic and playful, combining soft, friendly rounding with sharp, engineered cut-ins. Its sturdy, poster-like weight and compact rhythm evoke mid-century display lettering and arcade/tech signage, while the notched details add a quirky, customized voice.
Likely designed as a display sans that modernizes rounded-rectangle geometry with small stencil-like interventions to create a memorable, brandable texture. The intention appears to balance friendliness (soft corners, inflated forms) with a technical edge (clipped joins and cut-ins) for bold, contemporary titling.
Several glyphs feature distinctive internal cutaways and partially open shapes that add character but also increase visual noise at small sizes. Numerals are bold and blocky with the same rounded-rect geometry, making them feel cohesive with the uppercase for titling and branding.
