A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with softened corners and largely uniform stroke weight. Forms are built from superelliptical geometry: squared-off curves, broad shoulders, and compact joins that keep the silhouettes dense. Counters are small and often squarish (notably in O/0 and a/e), and apertures tend to be tight, producing a high-ink, poster-ready texture. The rhythm is steady and upright, with minimal modulation and a distinctly chunky, monoline construction across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for display sizes where the chunky silhouettes and rounded-rect geometry can read clearly—headlines, posters, packaging, and branding marks. It works well in short phrases, labels, and high-impact signage, especially where a retro or tech-adjacent tone is desired.
The overall tone is bold and playful with a retro-digital flavor—friendly through its rounded corners, but forceful due to its dense mass and tight interiors. It reads as energetic and attention-seeking, leaning toward arcade, sports, and headline aesthetics rather than quiet text typography.
The design appears aimed at maximum impact through dense, rounded block forms and simplified counters, prioritizing graphic presence and a cohesive geometric theme. Its consistent stroke weight and squared curves suggest an intention to deliver a distinctive, easily recognizable voice for display typography.
Spacing appears intentionally generous for such heavy shapes, helping prevent collisions in all-caps settings, while the tight counters can start to fill in visually at smaller sizes. The lowercase maintains a strong presence with simplified, geometric construction that matches the caps closely, reinforcing a compact, uniform color in paragraphs.
