A compact, block-built sans with squared silhouettes and heavily rounded outer corners. Strokes are consistently thick, with broad, flat terminals and minimal modulation, creating a sturdy, sign-like texture. Counters are mostly rectangular and tightly enclosed, and many joins resolve into clean right angles softened by corner radii. The lowercase follows the same modular construction with a tall x-height and short extenders, while the numerals echo the same boxy, cut-in counter logic for a unified, dense rhythm in text.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logos, product marks, packaging callouts, and playful interface titles. It can also work for themed graphics where a chunky geometric texture is desired, but it’s less ideal for small sizes or extended reading.
The overall tone is playful and slightly mechanical, combining a retro arcade/industrial flavor with a deliberately odd, experimental charm. Its chunky geometry feels friendly rather than severe, reading as confident, bold, and attention-seeking.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence with a modular, rounded-rectangle construction that feels both nostalgic and experimental. Its simplified geometry and compact counters prioritize bold silhouette recognition and a distinctive, characterful texture in display typography.
Spacing and forms favor solid black mass and compact interior space, which makes the font pop at display sizes but can feel tight in long lines. The design language is highly consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a strong, unmistakable voice.
