A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and an even, mechanical rhythm. Strokes stay consistently thick, with squared-off terminals that are subtly radiused, giving the forms a sturdy, rubber-stamp feel. Bowls and curves are broad and simplified, counters are relatively compact, and spacing follows a regular grid-like cadence that keeps text color uniform. The lowercase is large and open, with short ascenders and descenders relative to the x-height, helping the face hold its shape at smaller sizes.
Well-suited to interfaces, dashboards, and tabular settings where consistent alignment and even texture matter. The sturdy weight and rounded construction also work for packaging, headings, posters, and short callouts that benefit from a bold, friendly industrial voice.
The overall tone is approachable and slightly retro, balancing a no-nonsense, engineered structure with friendly rounded edges. It reads as practical and dependable, but with enough softness to feel inviting rather than austere.
Likely intended as a robust, easy-to-read workhorse with a softened, contemporary take on monospaced utility forms—designed to stay legible, align neatly, and maintain a consistent typographic color in dense settings.
In running text the consistent width and strong verticals create a clear, steady texture. Numerals and capitals maintain the same stout, rounded construction, supporting a cohesive, signage-like presence when set in blocks or labels.
