A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction that keeps curves broad and corners softly radiused. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and counters are open but compact, giving the forms a dense, sturdy color. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, while round letters and bowls lean toward squared curves rather than pure circles. The overall rhythm is even and engineered, with simplified details and tight internal shaping that reads clearly at display sizes.
It performs best in headlines, packaging, and signage where its thick strokes and squared-round curves can read quickly and confidently. The clean geometry also suits UI labels, dashboards, and product branding that benefit from a solid, contemporary voice.
The font projects a modern, practical tone—confident and straightforward with a subtly friendly edge from its rounded corners. It feels contemporary and technical rather than expressive, suited to brands or interfaces that want robustness and clarity without sharpness.
The design appears intended to merge geometric efficiency with approachable rounding—delivering a strong display presence while avoiding aggressive, sharp-cornered forms. Its simplified, consistent shapes suggest an emphasis on clarity and repeatable system-like construction.
Digit forms follow the same squared-round logic as the letters, with a stable, blocky silhouette and clear differentiation between figures. The lowercase maintains a functional, simplified look with strong verticals and compact apertures, reinforcing a consistent, no-nonsense texture across text.
