A dense, compact sans with heavy strokes and softly squared curves. Round forms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with consistent corner radii and minimal stroke modulation throughout. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend to be small, creating a solid, poster-like color on the page. The lowercase is straightforward and sturdy, with short extenders and simple joins that maintain an even, mechanical rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and brand moments where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It works well for signage and wayfinding, packaging labels, and logo/wordmark work that benefits from sturdy shapes and rounded-rect geometry.
The overall tone is bold and matter-of-fact, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded corners. It feels industrial and slightly retro, like labeling, equipment markings, or classic display typography, while still reading as approachable rather than aggressive.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch in a tight footprint, combining a technical, modular structure with softened corners for approachability. The consistent construction across the set suggests an emphasis on uniformity and bold legibility in display settings.
The figures and capitals share the same squared-round construction, giving a cohesive, system-like look across letters and numbers. In longer text, the compact shapes create strong texture and high presence, favoring impact and clarity over delicacy.
