A heavy, compact sans with squared-off, superelliptical curves and generously rounded corners. Strokes are consistently thick with clean, simplified joins and minimal internal detailing, creating large, dark counters and strong silhouette clarity. The design favors broad shoulders and blunt terminals, with slightly narrowed apertures that emphasize a dense, poster-ready rhythm. Figures are similarly robust and geometric, matching the letters’ rounded-rectangle construction for a cohesive, utilitarian texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short emphatic copy where weight and compactness help grab attention. It also fits branding marks, packaging fronts, and signage that benefits from a rugged, readable, high-contrast silhouette at a distance.
The overall tone is assertive and no-nonsense, projecting strength and reliability while staying approachable through its softened corners. It feels contemporary and energetic, with a sporty, workwear-like presence that reads as bold and pragmatic rather than delicate or refined.
The design appears intended to provide a maximal-impact, geometric sans with softened, rounded-rectangle forms—balancing toughness with approachability. Its simplified construction prioritizes fast recognition and strong typographic color for display-led communication.
The superelliptical rounding is applied consistently across straight-to-curve transitions, helping the font keep a uniform, machined feel even in curved letters. At display sizes it delivers strong impact and stable color, while the dense shapes can start to look heavy in extended text blocks.
