A heavy, geometric sans built from squarish, superellipse-like curves and blunt, flat terminals. The letterforms emphasize rounded-rectangle bowls and counters, producing a tight, compact interior space in characters like O, D, and P. Corners are consistently softened, while horizontals and verticals stay rigid and even, giving the design a machined, modular rhythm. The lowercase keeps a sturdy, utilitarian build with simple single-storey shapes and short joins; figures follow the same squared-round logic for a cohesive, sign-like texture.
Best suited to headlines and display settings where bold, geometric shapes are an advantage—posters, packaging fronts, product marks, and branding systems that want a sturdy, modern presence. It also fits sports and tech graphics, UI title treatments, and signage-style applications where its squared-round forms stay clear and consistent.
The overall tone is assertive and modern, with a distinctly engineered feel. Its rounded-rect geometry reads as contemporary and tech-adjacent—more “equipment label” than “editorial”—and the dense shapes create an energetic, high-impact voice.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact through a disciplined rounded-rect construction, prioritizing strong silhouettes and an industrial, contemporary character. Its consistent geometry suggests an intention to feel modern and durable while remaining friendly through softened corners.
The design’s signature is the consistent rounded-rectangle construction, which creates strong silhouette recognition at large sizes. At smaller sizes, the compact counters and thick joins can make interior spaces feel tight, so it benefits from generous spacing and sizes where its chunky geometry can breathe.
