A compact sans with heavy strokes, tight internal counters, and a distinctly squared, superellipse-like construction. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry rather than circular bowls, giving letters a blocky but softened silhouette. Terminals are predominantly flat, joins are sturdy, and spacing is efficient, producing a dense rhythm well suited to large setting. Numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, vertically driven structure with minimal modulation and strong presence.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where compact width and strong stroke weight help text hold attention in limited space. It can work for short UI labels, signage, and packaging callouts that need clarity at a distance. For longer passages, it is most effective when set with generous leading and comfortable margins to offset its dense typographic color.
The overall tone is direct and functional, with a contemporary, industrial confidence. Its compressed stance and solid shapes read as forceful and attention-grabbing, while the rounded corners keep it from feeling sharp or overly aggressive. The result is a pragmatic display voice that feels modern and no-nonsense.
The design appears intended as a contemporary, space-efficient sans that delivers maximum impact through compact proportions and superellipse-based shapes. It prioritizes bold, clean legibility and a consistent geometric voice for display-forward typography.
Round letters such as O/C/G and the bowls in b/d/p/q show a squarish softness that reinforces the superellipse theme. The lowercase leans toward single-storey forms (notably a and g), supporting a straightforward, modern texture. In paragraph samples, the weight and compact widths create strong color and impact, especially in headlines.
