A heavy, geometric sans built from squared silhouettes with generously rounded corners and rounded-rectangle counters. Curves are minimized in favor of straight runs and softened angles, producing superellipse-like bowls and a boxy rhythm. Terminals are blunt and consistent, and the punctuation and numerals follow the same squared, softened construction, giving text a compact, modular texture with strong color on the page.
Works best for short, bold applications such as logos, headlines, posters, product branding, and packaging where a strong geometric voice is desired. It also suits tech-themed interfaces, esports or sports graphics, and title treatments that benefit from a compact, modular look.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered, with a distinctly digital, arcade/tech flavor. Its blocky forms and softened corners read as tough but approachable, lending a confident, utilitarian attitude suited to high-impact messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, squared construction and rounded corners, creating a consistent, system-like visual language across letters and figures. It prioritizes a distinctive display texture and a contemporary, tech-forward feel over neutral body-text readability.
Several glyphs lean into stylized geometry—like squared ‘O’/‘0’ forms, a sharply notched ‘8’, and a distinctive ‘Q’ tail—reinforcing a display-oriented personality. The dense stroke mass and tight internal counters make it most comfortable at larger sizes where the shapes can breathe.
