A rounded-rectangle grotesk with heavily softened corners and broadly squared bowls. Strokes are sturdy and even, with tight, compact counters that keep letters dense and stable. Curves tend to resolve into superellipse-like forms (notably in C/G/O/Q), while terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered. The overall rhythm is steady and engineered, with generous internal rounding that prevents the heavy weight from feeling harsh.
Well-suited to UI headings, navigation labels, and product surfaces where a sturdy, geometric sans can stay legible at a glance. It also works effectively for brand marks, posters, and packaging that benefit from a tech-forward, friendly-industrial voice. The dense counters and squared curves make it especially comfortable at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone reads contemporary and technical, like interface typography designed to feel approachable. Its squared geometry projects efficiency and control, while the rounded corners add warmth and reduce severity. Overall it feels confident, straightforward, and slightly retro-futuristic.
The design appears intended to merge industrial clarity with softened geometry: a squared, engineered skeleton tempered by generous rounding. It prioritizes bold presence and consistent, system-like forms while maintaining an approachable, contemporary feel for digital and product contexts.
Several shapes emphasize a squared construction: the uppercase D and O are almost rounded rectangles, and the lowercase a/e use compact, boxy apertures. Numerals follow the same softened-rectilinear logic, with clear, sturdy silhouettes suited to prominent display.
