A compact, heavy sans with a rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Corners are softened and curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls, giving counters a squarish, softly rounded feel. Strokes stay even and full, with short, firm terminals and minimal modulation. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g), open apertures, and a steady rhythm; the numerals follow the same rounded-square logic with clear, simplified shapes.
Works well for bold branding systems, product identities, and packaging where a sturdy, geometric voice is desired. Its large forms and simplified details suit signage and wayfinding, and it can be effective in UI or interface headings where clarity and a modern, rounded-square aesthetic are important.
The overall tone is contemporary and utilitarian, with a tech-forward, engineered personality. The rounded corners temper the mass, keeping it approachable rather than aggressive, while the firm geometry reads confident and efficient.
Likely designed to deliver a robust, geometric sans that bridges sharp industrial structure with softened corners for approachability. The consistent rounded-rectangle logic across letters and figures suggests an intention toward system-like coherence and strong display performance.
Bowls and rounds (C, G, O, Q, e, o, 0) lean toward squared curves, and joins are clean and controlled, producing a consistent, modular texture in text. Diagonals (V, W, X, Y, Z) are strong and stable, and punctuation/diacritics in the sample appear restrained and blocky, matching the font’s squared softness.
