A compact, all-caps-forward sans with superelliptic construction: round forms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry rather than true circles, and curves resolve into subtly flattened shoulders and terminals. Strokes are sturdy and even, with crisp joins and little to no modulation, producing a dense, poster-ready color. Counters are relatively tight (notably in B, 8, and 9), while apertures remain clear enough for display use. The lowercase is straightforward and workmanlike, with simple bowls and a single-storey g, and the figures share the same compact, squared-round rhythm for a cohesive set.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of copy where compact width and strong presence are desirable—posters, signage, packaging, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for UI labels or navigation where space is tight and a firm, modern tone is needed, though the dense counters suggest it will be strongest at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is firm and pragmatic, with a contemporary, industrial voice. Its condensed, squared-round shapes suggest efficiency and control, reading as confident and no-nonsense rather than friendly or calligraphic.
Likely designed to deliver a space-efficient, high-impact sans with a distinctive superelliptic skeleton—combining geometric regularity with softened corners for a controlled, contemporary look.
The capital set carries strong vertical emphasis, and the superellipse-based rounds (C, G, O, Q, 0) create a distinctive “rounded box” silhouette that stays consistent across letters and numerals. The result is a highly uniform texture in lines of text, where spacing and sturdy strokes do most of the stylistic work.
