A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared terminals. Strokes are largely uniform, with minimal modulation and tight, efficient counters that keep letters dense without closing up. Curves resolve into superelliptical bowls (notably in C, O, and lowercases), while verticals remain dominant, giving a tall, compressed texture. Joints and corners are slightly eased rather than sharp, producing a sturdy, engineered silhouette across both text and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short-form copy where a dense, high-impact presence is needed, such as posters, signage, labels, and packaging. Its compact proportions make it useful when space is limited, while the rounded-rect forms keep large-scale type looking clean and controlled.
The overall tone is no-nonsense and functional, with a contemporary industrial feel. Its compact density and firm weight convey authority and emphasis, while the rounded corners temper the voice to feel approachable rather than aggressive. The result reads as modern, pragmatic, and signage-forward.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, space-efficient sans with a distinctive superelliptical skeleton. The intent seems to balance industrial robustness with softened corners for legibility and a contemporary, approachable finish in display and titling contexts.
The design maintains a consistent rounded-rect geometry across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive rhythm in running text. Descenders are relatively short and the lowercase shapes stay compact, which helps maintain an even line color in tight settings. Numerals follow the same squared-round logic and feel built for clarity at display sizes.
