A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Curves resolve into squarish bowls and superellipse-like counters, producing a compact, blocky silhouette with tight apertures and strong vertical stress. Strokes are broadly even, joins are clean, and terminals tend to end in gently rounded cuts rather than sharp points, giving the forms a sturdy, engineered feel. The lowercase stays simple and sturdy, while figures and capitals maintain consistent weight and a controlled, uniform rhythm.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where maximum presence is needed, such as posters, branding wordmarks, packaging labels, and bold signage. It also works well for UI or graphic elements that benefit from a robust, rounded-technical look, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and confident with a friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads as contemporary and energetic rather than formal, conveying a utilitarian, sporty character that still feels approachable.
The font appears intended to deliver a strong, high-impact voice using geometric, rounded-rect forms that remain legible and consistent. Its construction suggests a focus on modern display typography with a softened edge for approachability.
The design emphasizes squarish inner spaces and reduced curvature, which boosts impact at display sizes and keeps letters visually stable. Spacing appears designed to hold dense text without losing the chunky, poster-like presence, though the tight apertures can make extended copy feel heavy.
