A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broadly squared curves. Strokes are thick and consistently weighted, with corners softly radiused rather than sharp, giving counters a squarish, superelliptical feel. Uppercase forms read as blocky and stable, while lowercase shapes are simplified with sturdy stems and minimal detailing; the overall rhythm is tight and dense, with short extenders and large, solid terminals. Numerals follow the same chunky geometry, with bold bowls and straightforward, legible silhouettes at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where maximum impact and a bold graphic footprint are needed. It also fits packaging and wayfinding/signage applications that benefit from sturdy, simplified letterforms, especially when set with slightly increased letterspacing for clarity.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, leaning industrial and slightly retro. Its rounded corners keep it friendly and approachable, but the mass and compact spacing make it feel confident and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, modern display voice built from rounded-rectangle geometry, prioritizing visual punch and consistent shape language over delicate detail. The intention appears to be a versatile, attention-first sans that remains approachable through softened corners and simplified forms.
The design emphasizes uniform, rectangular curvature across rounds (e.g., O/C/G-like shapes), which creates a cohesive, engineered texture in paragraphs. The weight and tight internal spaces suggest it performs best when given adequate size or generous tracking to avoid dark spots in dense settings.
