This is a heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction in its curves and counters. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to finish bluntly, reinforcing a compact, engineered feel. Round letters like O/C/Q read as squarish superellipses, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) keep crisp, even horizontals and verticals. The lowercase is built from simple, solid shapes with mostly single-storey forms (notably a and g), and the overall rhythm is tight and stable with clear interior spaces that hold up at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, logos, posters, and bold UI moments where strong shape recognition and a modern geometric voice are needed. It can work well for signage and packaging due to its sturdy forms and clear silhouettes, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the superelliptical rounds and compact spacing read cleanly.
The font conveys a contemporary, confident tone—pragmatic rather than decorative. Its rounded geometry adds approachability, while the dense weight and squared curves keep it feeling technical and punchy. Overall it reads as direct, modern, and built for impact.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric sans with softened corners—combining the efficiency of squared construction with friendlier rounded curves. It prioritizes bold, unmistakable letterforms that feel engineered and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Uppercase proportions are broad and steady, with diagonals (A, V, W, Y) feeling weighty and well-braced. Numerals are straightforward and sturdy; figures like 1 and 4 emphasize simple, sign-like construction. The design’s rounded corners reduce harshness without turning soft, keeping a controlled, utilitarian character.
