A heavy, geometric sans built from squared curves and rounded-rectangle logic. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and terminals are largely flat or softly radiused, producing a sturdy, engineered feel. Many letters use rectangular counters and inset cut-ins, creating a distinctive rhythm of corners, notches, and compact apertures. The lowercase is compact with short extenders and tight internal space, while numerals follow the same rounded-rectangular construction for a cohesive, modular texture in text.
Best suited to display applications where its geometric construction and distinctive cut-ins can be appreciated—headlines, logos, packaging, UI titles, and signage. It can work for short text blocks when set with generous spacing, but its compact counters and strong shapes are most effective when given room and size.
The overall tone is modern and machine-made, with a slightly sci‑fi edge driven by rounded corners, squared bowls, and deliberate interior cutouts. It reads as assertive and functional rather than friendly, suggesting interfaces, equipment labeling, and contemporary display design.
The design appears intended to merge a clean sans framework with superelliptical, rounded-rect geometry and signature notches, creating a recognizable, contemporary voice. The consistent stroke weight and modular curves prioritize impact and stylistic cohesion across letters and numerals.
Distinctive forms include squared-off round letters (like O/0) and stylized joins and insets that can resemble stencil cuts, especially in letters with internal corners (such as a, e, s, and m). The dense counters and angular-to-rounded transitions create a strong pattern on the line, making the face especially noticeable at larger sizes.
