A heavy, geometric sans built from squared forms with softened, rounded corners. Counters tend to be rectangular and tightly enclosed, giving the letters a dense, compact color. Strokes maintain an even thickness with minimal modulation, and joins are crisp with short, flat terminals. The overall rhythm is wide and sturdy, with superellipse-like curves appearing as rounded rectangles rather than true circles; diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are broad and stable, and the numerals follow the same squared, machined construction.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short statements where strong presence and crisp geometry are desirable. It also fits sports and esports branding, tech packaging, and UI/overlay graphics where a rugged, squared aesthetic supports quick recognition. For longer passages, it performs most comfortably at larger sizes where the compact counters remain clear.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a contemporary, engineered feel. Its rounded-square geometry reads as tech-forward and industrial, projecting strength and clarity rather than warmth or delicacy. The look suggests performance and utility—confident, streamlined, and slightly futuristic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through a cohesive rounded-rectangle construction, prioritizing bold legibility and a modern industrial voice. It aims for a consistent, modular feel across the set, balancing hard-edged structure with softened corners for a contemporary finish.
The dense counters and tight apertures create strong impact at display sizes, while the squared bowls and rectangular openings keep forms consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The overall silhouette favors block-like shapes, producing a uniform, poster-ready texture in continuous text.
