A compact, blocky sans with squared counters and generously rounded corners that read as superellipse-like. Strokes are heavy and assertive, with crisp vertical emphasis and minimal curvature beyond the softened corners. The geometry feels modular and built from rounded rectangles, producing consistent, tall proportions and tightly controlled apertures. Uppercase and numerals appear particularly architectural, while lowercase maintains the same rigid construction with simplified bowls and short, functional terminals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, labels, and logo-style wordmarks where a compact, muscular presence is desired. It can also work well for wayfinding, industrial-themed packaging, and sports or tech graphics where tight width and strong silhouettes help maximize impact in limited space.
The tone is utilitarian and machine-forward: confident, controlled, and slightly retro in a signage-and-stencil way. Its compressed forms and squared openings give it a disciplined, engineered voice that feels at home in technical and industrial contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact footprint, using a consistent rounded-rectangular geometry to create a cohesive, engineered look. The emphasis is on bold legibility and a distinctive, industrial voice rather than subtle text nuance.
The rhythm is strongly vertical, with narrow internal spaces and squared joins that keep word shapes dense and uniform. Round letters (like O/Q/0) avoid true circles, instead using rounded-rectangle outlines that reinforce the font’s constructed, modular character.
