A heavy, compact sans with squared-off curves and superellipse-like bowls that read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and strong, simple silhouettes. Corners and joins are consistently softened, while terminals stay blunt and straight, giving the design a sturdy, engineered feel. Uppercase proportions are broad and stable; lowercase forms are straightforward with single-storey a and g, and numerals are wide, monoline, and strongly rectangular in their internal shapes.
Best suited to display settings where strong presence and quick readability are priorities—headlines, posters, and bold branding. Its compact, rounded-rect geometry also fits packaging and wayfinding/signage where a sturdy, contemporary voice is helpful.
The overall tone is confident and contemporary, balancing friendliness from the rounded geometry with a no-nonsense, utilitarian weight. It feels assertive and direct, suited to messages that need to land quickly and clearly without looking sharp or aggressive.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a simplified geometric construction, using rounded-rectangle forms to stay approachable while remaining robust. The consistent stroke weight and blunt terminals prioritize clarity and punch over delicacy, aiming for a modern, industrial-leaning display sans.
The design’s rhythm comes from repeating rounded-rectangular counters across letters like B, D, O, P, and R, creating a cohesive family resemblance. The Q’s tail is short and integrated, and the lowercase shows simple, workmanlike details (notably the single-storey forms and sturdy shoulders), reinforcing a pragmatic, signage-ready personality.
