A compact, heavy sans with squared construction and generously rounded corners, giving many curves a softened-rectangle (superellipse) feel. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with tight apertures and short, efficient joins that keep counters relatively small. The rhythm is steady and engineered, with slightly condensed proportions in many letters and a strong vertical emphasis. Terminals tend to be flat and blunt; round letters read more like rounded rectangles than circles, and diagonals (as in V/W/X/Y) are sturdy and angular.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, labels, packaging, and brand marks where a tough geometric voice is desirable. It can also work for signage and UI moments that benefit from a compact, high-contrast-in-mass silhouette, though the tight apertures suggest avoiding very small sizes for long passages.
The overall tone is forceful and functional, leaning toward industrial and technical signage aesthetics. Its squared, rounded geometry adds a modern, sporty edge—confident and no-nonsense rather than friendly or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum solidity and clarity through compact, squared forms with softened corners—balancing an engineered, industrial structure with enough rounding to feel contemporary and controlled.
The uppercase set feels especially compact and uniform, while the lowercase keeps the same boxy logic with simple, sturdy forms (notably single-storey-style simplicity in several letters). Numerals are similarly geometric and robust, designed to hold up at distance and in high-impact settings.
