A heavy, geometric sans with superellipse-driven curves and rounded-rectangle counters. Strokes are monolinear with minimal modulation, and terminals are clean and squared off, producing dense, sturdy silhouettes. Bowls and apertures are relatively tight, while round letters (C, O, G, Q) lean toward squarish geometry rather than perfect circles. Lowercase forms show a large x-height with short ascenders and descenders, and the overall spacing reads compact and even in text.
Best suited to display-driven work where strong presence and clear silhouettes are needed, such as headlines, posters, branding systems, and packaging. It can also work for short UI labels and navigational elements where compact, sturdy letterforms help maintain legibility at medium sizes.
The tone is modern and pragmatic, combining a friendly softness from the rounded geometry with an assertive, no-nonsense weight. It feels contemporary and functional, with an industrial clarity that still stays approachable rather than technical or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, geometric voice with softened rectangular curves, prioritizing impact and consistency across letters and numerals. Its tight counters and uniform stroke treatment suggest a focus on bold clarity and a cohesive, system-friendly texture.
The numerals are similarly blocky and superelliptic, with strong verticals and rounded corners that match the letterforms. Uppercase shapes are broad and stable, and the lowercase maintains a consistent rhythm that emphasizes solid texture over airy openness.
