A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are thick and uniform with mostly flat terminals, while corners are consistently softened, producing squared bowls and counters rather than true circles. Proportions are compact with a steady vertical stance and tight apertures; curved letters like C, S, and G read as chamfered superellipses, and the lowercase follows the same geometric logic with single-storey a and g. Numerals match the chunky, modular feel, with squared forms and generous weight that holds up well at display sizes.
Best suited to bold headlines, logos, packaging, and signage where strong silhouettes and a compact rhythm are desirable. It also fits UI badges, game/tech themed graphics, and sports or event materials that need a rugged, high-impact voice.
The overall tone is tough and functional, evoking industrial labeling and retro digital or arcade-era graphics. Its rounded corners keep it approachable, but the dense geometry and strong silhouettes make it feel authoritative and engineered.
Likely intended as a geometric display sans that translates the logic of rounded rectangles into a full alphabet, prioritizing consistency, punch, and easy recognition in large-scale applications.
The design relies on a consistent rounded-corner radius and rectangular inner counters, giving text a distinctive stamped or molded-plastic look. In longer lines the heavy weight and compact spacing create a dark, rhythmic texture, favoring short headlines over extended reading.
