A heavy, geometric sans with a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and uniform with mostly closed or compact apertures, producing dense, dark letterforms and a strong horizontal footprint. Curves tend to square off into flat terminals and boxy counters (notably in O/0-like shapes), while diagonals in letters and figures are broad and stable, reinforcing a sturdy, engineered rhythm. Lowercase forms are simplified and sturdy, with short extenders and a generally compact, workmanlike silhouette that stays consistent across the set.
Best suited for large-scale typography where weight and presence are the priority—headlines, posters, branding marks, and energetic sports or automotive-style graphics. It can also work well for packaging and wayfinding-style signage where bold, simple shapes need to read quickly at a glance.
The overall tone is muscular and modern, with a tech-industrial attitude that feels assertive and performance-oriented. Its rounded corners keep it approachable, but the tight apertures and blocky geometry give it a controlled, machine-made character suited to bold, attention-forward messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through a rounded-rect geometry and dense, uniform strokes, creating a contemporary display voice that reads as engineered and durable. Its simplified forms suggest an emphasis on strong silhouettes and brandable shapes for titles and short statements.
Numerals and punctuation in the sample show the same squared, rounded-corner logic, with counters often rendered as small rounded rectangles. The design prioritizes impact and uniformity over delicacy, creating strong sign-like shapes that hold together in short phrases and large settings.
