A heavy, compact sans with squared-off proportions softened by rounded corners and superelliptical curves. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with largely closed apertures and minimal modulation, producing dense counters and a solid color on the page. Terminals tend to end in flat cuts, and many round characters (such as O/C/D) read as rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles, reinforcing a structured, engineered geometry. Spacing appears pragmatic and even, emphasizing a tight, efficient rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase.
Well suited for headlines, short blocks of copy, and display applications where impact and clarity matter, such as posters, signage, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work effectively in UI labels and dashboards when a sturdy, high-visibility sans is needed.
The overall tone is contemporary and no-nonsense, with an industrial pragmatism that feels built for signage and interface environments. Its rounded geometry adds approachability without losing authority, giving it a confident, workmanlike voice rather than a playful one.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, contemporary sans built from simplified, rounded-rectangular shapes, prioritizing strength, consistency, and quick recognition at a glance. The restrained detailing and compact proportions suggest a focus on practical communication with a modern, engineered character.
In text, the font maintains a strong vertical presence with clear, compact forms and a pronounced, steady texture. Numerals match the same blocky, rounded-rectangle construction, helping mixed alphanumeric strings feel cohesive and visually stable.
