A heavy, extended sans with a squared-superellipse construction: rounded rectangles drive the bowls and counters while corners are softly radiused throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing compact apertures and dense internal spaces. Curves resolve into flattened arcs and straight segments, giving letters a machined, aerodynamic feel; the lowercase is sturdy with a tall x-height and short extenders. Figures and capitals echo the same rounded-rect geometry, with wide ovals for 0/8/9 and crisp, horizontal terminals that keep the texture uniform across lines.
Best suited to large display settings such as headlines, posters, title cards, and bold branding where its extended proportions and rounded-rect forms can read clearly. It also fits sports and tech-forward identities, packaging fronts, and UI/overlay moments that call for impact more than long-form readability.
The overall tone is modern and assertive, with a distinctly futuristic/tech flavor. Its wide stance and softened corners read as engineered and performance-oriented rather than friendly or casual, suggesting speed, hardware, and contemporary digital interfaces.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a sleek, engineered geometry—combining broad proportions and rounded-square curves to create a contemporary, high-impact display voice.
The forms favor closed counters and tight apertures, so at smaller sizes the interior whitespace can fill in and the texture becomes very dark; it performs best when given room. The rhythm is strongly horizontal, and the rounded-square motif stays consistent across letters and numerals, reinforcing a cohesive, branded look.
