A heavy, block-like sans with squarish, superellipse geometry and consistently rounded corners. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and counters, producing a “soft square” rhythm across letters like O, Q, and the lowercase a/e. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with broad horizontals and verticals, tight apertures, and mostly closed forms; several glyphs introduce angular cuts that read like chamfers. Numerals and capitals maintain a strong, uniform footprint, while lowercase retains a compact, sturdy build with minimal modulation.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, titles, posters, and bold brand marks where its compact, rounded-rectilinear shapes can carry visual authority. It also fits tech and gaming interface graphics, esports or athletic identity work, and packaging that needs a modern, engineered voice. For long-form copy, it will work more as display text than continuous reading.
The overall tone is bold and modern, with a distinctly futuristic and industrial flavor. Rounded corners temper the mass, giving it a friendly, game/tech feel rather than purely brutalist. The chopped joins and squared counters add a performance-oriented, engineered character reminiscent of sci‑fi interfaces and sports branding.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence with a contemporary, rounded-square construction—combining dense, confident letterforms with softened corners for a controlled, futuristic look. The consistent superellipse language and occasional chamfered cuts suggest an intention to evoke machinery, interfaces, and performance without resorting to sharp, aggressive terminals.
Counters tend toward rounded rectangles (often with a squared-off inner shape), and several letters feature intentional notches or cut-ins that create a subtle stencil/tech impression. The texture is very dark at text sizes, so spacing and size will strongly influence readability in paragraphs.
