A heavy, blocky sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with softened corners and largely uniform stroke thickness. Counters tend toward squared or superelliptical shapes, and terminals are mostly flat, giving the forms a machined, modular feel. Proportions emphasize a tall lowercase with short ascenders/descenders and generous internal space for a display cut, while overall letterforms stay compact and firmly aligned on the baseline.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, and logo wordmarks where strong silhouette and punch matter most. It also fits packaging and sports/tech branding systems that benefit from a compact, high-impact sans with softened geometry.
The tone is bold and assertive, with a contemporary, engineered character that reads as sporty and tech-adjacent. Rounded corners keep the voice friendly rather than harsh, adding a playful edge that works well in energetic branding.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through thick, simplified forms while maintaining approachability via rounded corners and generous, squarish counters. Its consistent, modular construction suggests a focus on bold display settings and brand-forward typography.
Round letters like O and Q read as rounded squares, and diagonal forms (such as V/W/X) keep broad, wedge-like strokes that reinforce the font’s chunky texture. Numerals share the same squared, softened construction, supporting consistent headline typography across letters and digits.
