A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout, combining squared bowls and softly radiused corners. Strokes maintain an even thickness with clean, mostly straight terminals, while counters are compact and often rectangular or superelliptical, creating a dense, punchy texture. Uppercase forms are sturdy and wide-shouldered (notably in H, M, N), and lowercase follows the same blocky logic with simplified joins and minimal modulation. Numerals are equally robust, with closed, rounded-square forms (0, 8, 9) and straight, slab-like horizontals on 2, 5, and 7.
Best suited to display settings where bold shapes and compact counters can work as a graphic element—headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks. It can also perform well in short UI labels or wayfinding-style signage where sturdy forms and rounded corners help maintain clarity at larger sizes.
The overall tone is confident and utilitarian, leaning toward contemporary industrial and tech aesthetics. Rounded corners soften the mass, giving it an approachable, modern feel while still reading as strong and assertive.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a contemporary rounded-rect geometry, balancing toughness and friendliness. Its simplified, superelliptical construction suggests an intention toward modern branding and functional display typography rather than delicate text nuance.
The design emphasizes tight interior spaces and strong silhouette recognition, favoring blunt geometry over calligraphic detail. The squared, rounded-corner language stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, sign-like rhythm in lines of text.
