A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are largely monoline, with blunt terminals and minimal modulation, giving the letters a solid, even color on the page. Counters are relatively tight and often squarish (notably in rounds like C, O, and D), while verticals read sturdy and straight. Proportions feel condensed overall, with short extenders in the lowercase and a sturdy, upright stance across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display sizes where its compact width and heavy, rounded forms can deliver strong presence—such as headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and short UI labels. It can work in short paragraphs when set with generous tracking and line spacing, but its tight counters make it most comfortable for punchy, high-contrast messaging rather than long-form reading.
The rounded geometry and dense weight create an approachable, upbeat tone that feels contemporary with a nod to mid-century signage. Its firmness reads confident and practical, while the softened corners keep it friendly rather than severe.
The design appears intended to blend high-impact weight with soft, geometric friendliness, producing a condensed display sans that stays legible while projecting a warm, contemporary personality.
The sample text shows a strong typographic “block” presence, with tight internal space and clear, simple shapes that favor impact over delicacy. Numerals and capitals match the same rounded, sturdy construction, supporting a cohesive texture in mixed-case settings.
