A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and steady, with small apertures and broadly squared counters that give letters a sturdy, poster-like silhouette. Curves resolve into superellipse-like arcs rather than perfect circles, and terminals are blunt with consistent rounding. The lowercase is simple and utilitarian, with a single-storey a and g, short ascenders, and tight internal spacing that reinforces a dense overall rhythm.
Well-suited for headlines, short statements, and branding where impact and clarity are needed at a glance. The compact, rounded forms also fit packaging, labels, wayfinding, and display typography in digital or print contexts. For text blocks, it benefits from larger sizes and added spacing to maintain legibility.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, mixing a utilitarian toughness with a soft, friendly edge from the rounded corners. It reads as playful and slightly retro, with a “packaging and signage” personality that feels confident without being sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a compact footprint, using rounded-rectangle forms to keep the voice friendly while staying bold and highly graphic. Its simplified shapes and sturdy proportions suggest a focus on quick recognition for display use rather than delicate typographic nuance.
The narrow set and heavy weight create strong vertical emphasis, while the rounded geometry keeps shapes from feeling rigid. In the sample text, the dense counters and tight joins suggest it will perform best with generous tracking and line spacing, especially in longer settings.
