A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Curves are squarish and superelliptical rather than purely circular, giving bowls and counters a boxy, engineered feel. Strokes are thick and steady with minimal modulation, and terminals are mostly straight with subtle rounding that prevents harsh edges. Proportions emphasize a tall x-height and sturdy capitals; apertures are fairly open, and spacing reads even and utilitarian, supporting clear word shapes at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, short-form editorial, and branding where a strong, geometric voice is desired. The sturdy strokes and open shapes also make it effective for signage and interface labels at medium-to-large sizes, especially in clean, grid-based layouts.
The overall tone is contemporary and no-nonsense, with a slightly tech-forward, industrial character. Its rounded-square geometry feels friendly enough to avoid severity, while the weight and firm silhouettes project confidence and strength.
The design appears intended to merge geometric clarity with softened, rounded-square construction, delivering a robust display-friendly sans that still feels controlled and readable. Its consistent superelliptical logic suggests an emphasis on modernity and system coherence across letterforms and numerals.
Distinctive squared curves show up clearly in round letters and numerals, which read like rounded rectangles rather than circles. The forms stay consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, system-like rhythm well suited to structured layouts.
