A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms with broad, squared shoulders and generously radiused corners. Strokes are monoline and dense, producing a compact, poster-friendly texture; counters are small and often rectangular, with consistent inner corner rounding (notably in O/0, B, P, R, and 8). Terminals are blunt and flat, and diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) are cut cleanly with minimal modulation, keeping the overall silhouette crisp despite the soft corners.
Best suited to display sizes where its dense strokes and small counters remain open: headlines, logos and wordmarks, packaging panels, and bold UI labels. It works especially well for tech products, sports or automotive themes, and any design needing a robust, compact, geometric voice.
The tone is assertive and modern, mixing a tech/interface feel with a sporty, industrial solidity. Rounded corners soften the mass, giving it an approachable, retro-futurist character suited to bold statements rather than subtle typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a consistent rounded-rect geometry, balancing hard, engineered structure with softened corners for friendliness. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, modular consistency, and high visibility in short bursts of text.
Uppercase forms read particularly uniform and modular, while lowercase introduces more utilitarian, compact shapes (single-storey a, boxy c/e, and a short-armed r) that maintain the same rounded-rect counter logic. Numerals are sturdy and sign-like, with a squared 0 and a simple, blocky 1, reinforcing a functional display rhythm.
