A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and softly chamfered joins. Curves are broad and stable, with wide counters and minimal stroke modulation, giving the forms a solid, uniform color. Terminals are consistently rounded or slightly notched, and the overall texture reads compact and dense despite generous character widths. Lowercase shapes lean toward single-storey simplicity (notably a and g), with short ascenders/descenders and large interior apertures that keep the bold weight readable.
Best suited to display contexts where strong presence and quick recognition matter: headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, packaging, and signage. The large counters and simplified lowercase help it hold up in short blocks of text or UI labels when set with sufficient spacing, but it is most convincing in larger sizes where its geometric shaping can be appreciated.
The font projects a confident, high-impact tone that feels contemporary and approachable. Its softened geometry adds friendliness, while the dense weight and squared-off curves give it a sporty, industrial energy suited to bold statements and branding.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, contemporary silhouette, using superelliptical rounds to balance firmness and approachability. It prioritizes consistent geometry and bold, stable forms for brand-forward communication and attention-grabbing typography.
The numerals and capitals follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic, with closed forms staying open through large counters. Angular letters like K, V, W, X, and Y are built with sturdy diagonals and softened junctions, maintaining a consistent, engineered rhythm across the set.
