A heavy, block-forward sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Counters are compact and often squarish, with large interior apertures in letters like O, D, and P balanced by tight joins and short terminals. Curves resolve into superelliptical arcs rather than true circles, giving the design a machined, geometric feel; diagonals in A, V, W, and X are thick and stable, and the overall rhythm is chunky and even. Numerals follow the same rounded-block logic, with broad, stable silhouettes and simplified interior shapes.
Best used for headlines, posters, and short, punchy copy where its mass and rounded geometry can carry visual impact. It also fits branding applications like sports and lifestyle identities, product packaging, signage, and logo lockups where a sturdy, contemporary sans is desired.
The tone is assertive and high-impact, with a friendly edge from the rounded geometry. It reads as contemporary and energetic—suited to bold statements where solidity and approachability need to coexist.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visibility and a distinctive geometric signature using rounded-rectangle skeletons and thick, simplified forms. It prioritizes impact and recognizability over delicacy, aiming for a modern, energetic display voice that remains approachable.
At large sizes the distinctive rounded-rect forms feel crisp and emblematic; in dense setting the weight and tight internal spaces can make counters and punctuation feel compact. The uppercase has a strong, billboard-like presence, while the lowercase maintains the same stout, geometric voice with minimal modulation.
