A compact, heavy sans with squared-off curves and generously rounded corners, giving many letters a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are monoline and uniformly thick, with tight apertures and minimal interior counter space in several glyphs. Capitals read slightly condensed with crisp verticals and flat terminals, while curves stay controlled and boxy rather than circular. Figures are sturdy and geometric, with simplified forms and consistent corner radii that create a cohesive, modular rhythm.
Best suited to display work where its compact weight and squared rounding can carry identity: headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and bold UI labels. It can also work for short blocks of copy or signage when sizes and spacing are generous enough to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is functional and engineered, with a tech-forward, industrial confidence. Its rounded-square geometry also evokes a subtle retro digital or arcade flavor, balancing friendliness from the soft corners with a firm, no-nonsense presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, geometric sans with a signature rounded-square construction—optimized for impact, consistency, and a modern-industrial feel rather than delicate text nuance.
At text sizes the dense joins and narrow openings can darken lines, producing a strong texture and reducing delicacy in smaller settings. The distinctive rounded-rectangle logic stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, which helps maintain a unified voice in mixed typography.
