A heavy, rounded sans built from squarish, superellipse-like curves and broad, even strokes. Counters tend to be rectangular with generous corner radii, giving letters a molded, “capsule” feel. Terminals are consistently softened rather than sharply cut, and many forms show compact apertures that keep silhouettes solid and graphic. The lowercase maintains a high x-height and sturdy joins, while figures and capitals echo the same rounded-rectangle construction for a tightly unified texture.
Best suited to display sizes where its rounded-rect geometry and dense silhouettes can carry impact—headlines, branding marks, packaging, sports or esports graphics, and tech-focused UI labels. It can work for short paragraphs or interface microcopy when ample spacing is available, but it visually excels in titles, signage, and punchy callouts.
The overall tone reads modern and engineered, with a playful softness that keeps it approachable. Its chunky geometry and smoothed corners suggest sci‑fi interfaces, athletic branding, and contemporary product design rather than editorial refinement.
Designed to deliver a strong, contemporary sans look with a distinctive superellipse construction—prioritizing bold presence, smooth curvature, and a cohesive, system-like rhythm across letters and numerals.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “a,” a squared, pill-like “o/0,” and simplified, monoline-like diagonals on letters such as K, V, W, X, and Z. The ampersand and punctuation follow the same rounded, high-impact logic, helping the font keep a consistent voice in short bursts of text.
