A heavy, squared sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform with minimal modulation, producing dense, high-impact letterforms and sturdy counters. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls (notably in O/Q/0 and b/p/q), while many joins and terminals are cut with subtle chamfers that keep the shapes crisp rather than purely geometric. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a broad, flat-shouldered n/m rhythm, and a compact, utilitarian texture that stays even across lines. Numerals echo the same rounded-rect geometry with large, legible interior spaces and a slightly condensed, sign-like stance.
Best suited to headlines, logos, packaging, and signage where its blocky, rounded geometry can carry a strong identity. It also works well for UI titles, buttons, and short labels that benefit from sturdy forms and clear, simplified shapes. For extended reading, it performs better in larger sizes with generous spacing.
The overall tone reads modern and engineered—pragmatic, tough, and slightly futuristic. It suggests equipment labeling, automotive or sports branding, and interface typography where a controlled, technical feel is desirable. The rounded corners add approachability without losing the robust, industrial character.
This appears designed to deliver a compact, high-impact sans that blends rounded-rectangle geometry with crisp cuts for clarity. The aim is a consistent, systematized look that feels technical and contemporary while remaining friendly through softened corners.
The design relies on a consistent rectangular skeleton across rounds and straights, giving it a cohesive, modular system. Wide caps and squared bowls create a strong silhouette at display sizes, while the heavy weight and tight interior shapes can begin to close up in longer text, especially in smaller sizes or low-contrast settings.
