A sturdy geometric sans with squarish, superellipse-inspired curves and generously rounded corners. Strokes are heavy and even, with predominantly straight-sided forms that soften at terminals and joins, creating a blocky yet friendly silhouette. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangle shapes, apertures are relatively closed, and spacing feels compact but controlled, producing a dense, high-impact rhythm. The lowercase is built from simple verticals and smooth bowls, and the numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry for a consistent, engineered look.
Well suited to headlines, logos, product branding, and poster typography where a solid, contemporary presence is needed. Its rounded-rect construction also fits UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding or signage applications that benefit from clear, robust letterforms at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone reads modern and machine-made, combining a technical, industrial feel with a sporty sense of speed and control. Rounded corners keep it approachable, while the squared construction and tight apertures project firmness and authority.
The font appears designed to deliver an engineered, modern voice using a consistent rounded-rectangle geometry that stays legible and cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The intention seems to balance impact and approachability by pairing heavy, straight-sided structure with softened corners.
The design emphasizes a consistent corner radius across letters and figures, giving text a cohesive, modular texture. It performs best when set with adequate tracking and line spacing to prevent the heavy forms and compact counters from feeling crowded.
