A heavy, block-forward sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are uniform and thick, with generous corner rounding that softens an otherwise squared construction. Counters tend to be rectangular and tight, and many joins resolve into straight segments rather than curves, creating a compact, machined rhythm. The lowercase is sturdy and utilitarian, with simple single-storey forms and short, squared shoulders, while figures follow the same boxy, rounded-corner logic for a consistent, sign-like texture.
Best suited for display settings where maximum punch is needed: headlines, posters, event graphics, and bold packaging. The rounded-square construction also fits sports branding, tech or industrial-themed identities, and signage where sturdy shapes and quick recognition are priorities.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, combining industrial solidity with a friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads as sporty and technical rather than delicate, projecting confidence and impact in short bursts of text. The dense black shapes and squared internal spaces give it a rugged, engineered character.
The font appears designed to deliver high-impact messaging with a controlled, geometric feel—mixing squared proportions for authority with rounded corners for approachability. Its consistent rounded-rectangle system suggests an intention toward strong branding cohesion across letters and numbers.
Spacing appears slightly tight for such a heavy weight, producing a strong, continuous “wall of type” effect in paragraphs. The design’s superelliptical rounding is consistent across letters and numerals, which helps maintain clarity even with compact counters.
