A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) bowls and consistently blunt, squared terminals. Curves are smooth and even, with a clear monoline feel and minimal modulation, producing sturdy counters in letters like O, C, and G. Proportions lean compact in the lowercase, with a straightforward two-storey a, single-storey g, and a clean, vertical i/j with square dots. Numerals are robust and simple, including a slashed zero for clarity.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and interface labeling where strong presence and quick recognition matter. The slashed zero and sturdy numerals make it a good fit for identifiers, pricing, and data-forward layouts. It also works well in signage and packaging where rounded geometry and high impact need to coexist.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, balancing friendliness from the softened corners with authority from the dense weight. It reads as direct and no-nonsense, with a slightly industrial cleanliness that still feels approachable.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, highly legible sans with softened geometry and strong color on the page. The emphasis appears to be on dependable readability at display and UI sizes, with character details that reduce ambiguity while preserving a cohesive, rounded industrial aesthetic.
The design favors clarity through open apertures and simplified joins, and its rounded geometry keeps dense text from feeling harsh. The uppercase set is particularly stable and sign-like, while the lowercase maintains a consistent rhythm suited to longer lines.
