A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like shapes. Strokes are uniform and substantial, with softened corners and broad, stable curves that keep counters fairly open despite the weight. Uppercase forms read squared and architectural (notably in C, G, S, and O), while lowercase stays compact with a tall x-height and short extenders. Terminals are generally blunt with gentle rounding, and spacing feels sturdy and even, supporting dense settings and large display sizes.
This font is well suited to headlines, branding marks, and short statements where its weight and rounded geometry can carry a strong visual identity. It also works effectively for packaging and signage, and for UI labels or buttons when a sturdy, friendly sans is desired—especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, mixing a tech-forward geometry with friendly softness. Its confident weight and squared rounds give it a robust, utilitarian feel while remaining playful enough for contemporary branding.
The design appears intended to provide a contemporary, high-impact sans with softened geometry: strong enough for display use, yet approachable through rounded corners and generous, simplified forms. The tall x-height and compact lowercase suggest an aim for clear, efficient reading in short blocks of text and interface-style settings.
Circular letters lean toward rounded-square silhouettes rather than true circles, giving the type a distinctive, “soft industrial” rhythm. Figures are similarly built—boxy and bold—with clear differentiation at a glance, especially in the angular construction of 1, 4, and 7 and the rounded counters of 8 and 9.
