A heavy, block-structured sans with rounded-rectangle curves and consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal modulation and generous interior counters shaped like superellipses. Many joins and terminals resolve into straight segments with small radii, creating a squared-off rhythm; diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y) are sturdy and relatively steep. The lowercase is compact with sturdy stems, short ascenders/descenders, and a single-storey a and g; the dot on i/j is a small square, reinforcing the geometric system. Numerals are similarly boxy and rounded, with 0 as a rounded rectangle and tight, squared apertures across 2–9.
Best suited to short, high-contrast applications where its chunky geometry can carry the message: headlines, display typography, logos, product names, and packaging. It also fits interface-style graphics, game/tech branding, and bold signage where a squared, rounded-corner aesthetic is desired.
The overall tone is modern and engineered, with a confident, high-impact presence that reads as technical and performance-oriented. Its rounded-square construction evokes hardware interfaces, sci‑fi UI lettering, and industrial labeling rather than humanist warmth.
The letterforms appear intended to translate a rounded-rectangle geometry into a readable, contemporary display sans. The consistent corner treatment and uniform stroke weight suggest a focus on cohesion and punchy impact across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The design leans on closed forms and tight apertures, which strengthens solidity but can make small sizes feel dense. Distinctive details like the squared i/j dots and the angular, platform-like terminals on curves help keep the texture consistent across mixed-case settings.
