A heavy, geometric sans with forms built from rounded rectangles and superellipse-like curves. Strokes are broadly uniform, with tight counters and a compact, squared-off construction that keeps bowls, shoulders, and terminals feeling sturdy and controlled. Corners are consistently softened, producing a smooth, molded silhouette rather than sharp angles, while joins stay clean and mechanical. The overall rhythm is dense and punchy, with simplified shapes that prioritize strong silhouettes over fine detail.
Best suited for display settings where strong, compact letterforms need to hold their shape at a distance: headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and signage. It can also work for UI labels or navigational elements when a bold, friendly-tech voice is desired, though the tight counters suggest more comfortable performance at medium to large sizes.
The tone is assertive and contemporary, combining a rugged, industrial presence with friendly rounded edges. It reads as tech-forward and game-like, with a slightly toy-block character that keeps the weight from feeling harsh. The result feels energetic and confident, suited to attention-grabbing headlines.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact through simplified, superelliptical geometry: sturdy shapes, rounded-corner construction, and consistent stroke weight for a cohesive, modern display voice.
Numerals and uppercase letters lean into squared, rounded-corner geometry, yielding high consistency across the set. The lowercase echoes the same construction, with minimal modulation and straightforward terminals that maintain the font’s compact, engineered feel.
