A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction throughout. Strokes are uniform and dense, with generous corner radii that keep joins soft despite the weight. Counters tend toward squarish ovals, and terminals are clean and blunt, giving the letters a compact, blocky presence. Curves on C, G, O, and S feel engineered rather than calligraphic, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are straight and decisive, creating a consistent, high-impact texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display work where its dense strokes and rounded-rect geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, wordmarks, packaging, and high-visibility signage. It can also serve in UI labels or product titling when a bold, contemporary tone is desired, especially at larger sizes.
The overall tone is contemporary and assertive with a friendly edge. Its rounded geometry reads technical and product-oriented, while the softened corners prevent it from feeling harsh or industrial. The result is a confident, accessible voice suited to modern interfaces and branding.
The design appears intended to merge strict geometric construction with softened corners for a modern, approachable display sans. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, consistent rhythm, and a tech-forward feel that remains friendly rather than austere.
The numerals match the type’s squarish rounding and carry strong, simplified silhouettes, contributing to a sturdy, sign-like rhythm. In text, the weight produces a solid color and the rounded forms keep word shapes cohesive, especially at display sizes.
