A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a dense, even color in text. Curves resolve into superelliptical bowls and counters, while joins and terminals stay blunt and squared-off, giving letters a sturdy, engineered feel. Proportions are slightly condensed with tight apertures in several forms, and numerals follow the same boxy, softened geometry for a cohesive set.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that need a compact, high-impact sans with a technical edge. It can also work for signage and UI labels where sturdy shapes and consistent stroke weight help maintain clarity at larger sizes.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, leaning toward signage and equipment labeling rather than elegant editorial typography. Its rounded corners keep it approachable, but the compressed, block-like silhouettes read as functional, technical, and no-nonsense.
This font appears designed to deliver a bold, space-efficient voice built from rounded-rectangular forms—combining strong presence with softened corners for a modern, industrial-friendly look.
The design favors strong silhouettes and compact spacing, which helps short words and headings feel punchy and controlled. The rounded-rectangle logic is especially apparent in bowls and curved letters, creating a consistent, modular rhythm across caps, lowercase, and figures.
