A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms, with large counters and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are broad and consistent, terminals are blunt, and corners are generously radiused, producing a sturdy, block-like silhouette. Uppercase proportions feel expansive and stable, while lowercase maintains a compact, single‑storey construction (notably a, g) with wide bowls and short joins. Numerals follow the same squared-round logic, with simple, open shapes and strong vertical presence.
Best suited to headlines, logos, packaging, and signage where a strong, compact word shape is an advantage. It performs well in short bursts—titles, labels, UI feature callouts, and bold typographic graphics—where its squared-round geometry can anchor a layout and convey a modern, industrial character.
The overall tone is forceful and contemporary, projecting a confident, engineered feel with a slightly playful softness from the rounded corners. It reads as modern and utilitarian rather than elegant, suited to bold, attention-first communication.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, geometric voice: a dense, high-presence sans that stays approachable via rounded corners and open counters. Its consistent superelliptical construction suggests an intention to feel engineered and contemporary while remaining visually simple and robust.
The design relies on wide, squared-round bowls (C, O, D, G) and stout horizontals (E, F, T), giving text a chunky rhythm and strong color on the page. The large counters help prevent the weight from feeling clogged, keeping short text readable even at smaller sizes, though the dense mass favors display use.
