A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are broadly monoline with minimal contrast, and terminals are softened into squared curves rather than sharp cuts. Counters tend toward vertical ovals and rounded boxes, producing dense, stable forms with short joins and a steady rhythm in text. The overall proportion favors narrow letterforms and tight internal space, while maintaining clear silhouettes and consistent stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of text where a dense, confident texture is desirable—such as posters, branding systems, packaging, and display typography. The compact forms also make it useful for UI labels, navigation, and signage-style applications where space efficiency and clear silhouettes matter.
The rounded geometry and sturdy weight give the typeface a contemporary, approachable tone that still feels assertive. Its compact stance and smooth corners read as practical and engineered, with a friendly softness that avoids harshness.
The design appears intended to merge geometric, rounded-rectangle forms with a strong, space-saving footprint. It aims for a consistent, modern voice that balances friendliness (soft corners) with impact (heavy strokes and compact width).
The superelliptical skeleton is especially apparent in round letters and bowls, where curves resolve into softly squared corners. Numerals match the alphabet’s blocky-round logic, and punctuation/dots appear compact and solid, reinforcing the dense, utilitarian texture in running text.
