A heavy, geometric sans with squared construction softened by generous rounded corners and superellipse-like curves. Strokes are monolinear and compact, producing dense counters and a tight internal rhythm. The capitals are wide and stable, with flat terminals and minimal modulation, while round characters like C, O, and Q read as rounded rectangles rather than circles. Numerals follow the same squared-round logic, with a strong, modular feel and consistent corner radii across the set.
Best suited for headlines and large-scale typography where its sturdy, squared-round shapes can read clearly and project authority. It also fits branding, packaging, and signage that aims for a modern, engineered look, as well as UI titles or feature labels where a technical voice is desired.
The overall tone is technical and no-nonsense, with a contemporary industrial flavor. Its blocky forms and rounded-square geometry suggest machinery, interfaces, and engineered systems rather than editorial warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver an engineered, modern sans built from rounded-rectangular primitives, prioritizing strong silhouettes and consistent geometry. It aims for impact and clarity in display contexts while maintaining a cohesive, modular system across letters and numerals.
Apertures tend to be relatively closed and joints are clean and uniform, emphasizing solidity at display sizes. The design’s consistent corner treatment and compact counters create a strong silhouette that remains distinctive in short words and headings.
