A compact, geometric sans with squared construction softened by generous corner rounding. Strokes are uniform and heavy, producing crisp, blocklike counters and a steady, engineered rhythm. Curves tend toward rounded-rectangle forms rather than true circles, and terminals are clean and blunt. Proportions are tall with tight internal space, and the overall texture reads dense and even across mixed case and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and brand marks where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can also work for navigational and environmental text at larger sizes, where the squared-rounded shapes remain clear and distinctive.
The tone is pragmatic and assertive, with an industrial, signage-like confidence. Its rounded-square geometry feels contemporary and functional rather than playful, giving copy a firm, no-nonsense presence.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, space-efficient presence with a controlled, geometric look, combining blunt, engineered shapes with softened corners for approachability without losing authority.
The design’s corner rounding is consistent and prominent, creating a distinctive “softened block” silhouette in both bowls and apertures. Letterforms maintain a disciplined, grid-friendly feel, which helps it stay stable in all-caps and short strings.
