A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are largely uniform with minimal modulation, producing strong, dark letterforms and crisp counters. Curves tend to resolve into squared bowls and superelliptical rounds, while terminals are blunt and clean. Proportions skew toward compact widths with generous vertical presence, and the lowercase shows a high, sturdy body with simple, built-up forms that keep shapes open and legible at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a strong, compact silhouette is an asset. It also fits wayfinding, labels, and UI moments that benefit from sturdy, high-contrast-on-screen shapes, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is industrial and slightly retro, evoking utilitarian signage and engineered labeling. Its rounded-square geometry adds a friendly, playful edge while still reading as tough and mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive rounded-square geometry, balancing utilitarian clarity with a distinctive, characterful silhouette for display-driven typography.
Distinctive squared-rounded bowls and corners create a consistent rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and figures. The numerals and several letters lean into modular, almost stencil-like simplification, which reinforces a technical, fabricated feel in headlines and short text.
