A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction across curves and counters. Strokes are monolinear with blunt terminals, producing dense, stable letterforms and tight, efficient spacing in text. Round letters like O/C/G and numerals use softly squared curves, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) keep crisp joins and broad, dark silhouettes. Lowercase forms are simple and compact, with single‑storey a and g, sturdy stems, and small, clean details that stay legible at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short text where strong color and rounded geometry can carry the design. It works well for branding, packaging, and signage that need an approachable but sturdy voice, and for interface or product marketing where bold labels and numbers must read quickly.
The overall tone is friendly and modern, pairing softness in the rounded geometry with a confident, emphatic weight. It reads as approachable and utilitarian rather than formal, giving headlines a contemporary, tech-adjacent feel without becoming playful or quirky.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact through a compact, monolinear structure while softening the feel with rounded-rectangle curves. The intent is a contemporary geometric sans that remains friendly and highly legible in prominent sizes.
The design relies on superelliptical rounding rather than true circles, which gives it a distinctive, slightly squared rhythm in both letters and numerals. The figures are bold and attention-grabbing, with clear differentiation in shapes like 1, 4, and 7, supporting punchy numeric settings.
