A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse logic, with consistently softened corners and largely monolinear strokes. Proportions skew broad and sturdy, with a tall x-height and short ascenders/descenders that keep lowercase forms compact. Counters tend to be squarish and tight, and many joins read as engineered, with crisp diagonals and squared shoulders balanced by generous corner radii. Numerals follow the same squircle construction, producing clean, modular silhouettes that hold up at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, logos, packaging, and signage where a strong, modern presence is desired. It also fits digital product surfaces—dashboards, game interfaces, and tech marketing—where rounded-squared geometry complements UI components and icon systems.
The overall tone is contemporary and synthetic, evoking user interfaces, machinery, and performance branding. Its wide stance and squared curves feel confident and purposeful, leaning toward a sci‑fi/tech aesthetic rather than a neutral text voice.
The design appears intended to merge the friendliness of rounded corners with the precision of squared geometry, creating a bold display sans that feels both engineered and approachable. Its compact lowercase and consistent construction suggest an emphasis on punchy readability and a cohesive, modular visual system.
Round forms like O/Q and bowls show a strong superellipse feel, while letters such as S and Z maintain flattened, controlled curvature that emphasizes a constructed rhythm. The typeface reads most distinctive when set large, where the rounded corners and squarish counters become a key part of the personality.
