A heavy, squared sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry, with broad, flat terminals and consistently softened corners. Counters are compact and mostly rectangular, producing dense, high-impact letterforms with minimal modulation. The rhythm is uniform and mechanical, with short joins and straightforward construction; diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) feel chiselled and stable, while curves (C, G, S) are boxy and controlled. Numerals follow the same squared logic, with enclosed forms like 0, 6, 8, and 9 appearing especially compact.
Best suited to short, high-visibility settings such as headlines, posters, labels/packaging, and logo wordmarks where a compact, industrial texture helps messaging feel direct. It can also work for signage and UI headings, particularly in tech or sport contexts, where its squared geometry reads quickly at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is tough and functional, leaning toward an engineered, technical personality. Its squared rounds and solid texture evoke contemporary industrial design, wayfinding hardware, and performance branding rather than editorial refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, contemporary sans with superelliptical rounding—combining the clarity of geometric construction with softened corners for approachability. Its compact counters and strong silhouette suggest a focus on impact and legibility in display applications.
The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a geometric, almost modular construction. The dot on i/j is a clean, circular mark that reinforces the pragmatic, sign-like feel. The bold stroke density creates a strong “stamped” presence in continuous text, with counters that stay readable but intentionally tight.
