A heavy, blocky sans with squarish counters and generously rounded corners that push many forms toward rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes stay uniform with minimal modulation, and joins are mostly crisp while terminals end in flat cuts softened by the corner radius. The overall proportions feel compact and efficient, with tight interior spaces (notably in B, P, R, 8) and a sturdy, constructed rhythm. Diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are broad and stable, and the lowercase follows the same monoline, squared-off logic with simple, robust bowls and short, controlled extenders.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a dense, high-impact word shape is desirable. It also works well for labels, packaging, and signage that benefit from sturdy, simplified forms, especially at medium to large sizes where the rounded-rect counters stay clear.
The tone is assertive and no-nonsense, leaning into a contemporary industrial and tech signage feel. Its squared curves and dense black shapes read as strong and functional rather than friendly or delicate, giving a confident, engineered character that suits bold messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum solidity and immediacy through compact geometry and rounded-square construction. It prioritizes bold presence, consistent texture, and a modern utilitarian voice for display typography.
Roundings are consistent across the set, creating a cohesive superellipse-like texture in both uppercase and lowercase. The numerals match the letters’ compact, rounded-rectangle construction, supporting a uniform voice across alphanumerics and helping maintain impact in short, high-contrast layouts.
