A compact, heavy sans with squared-off superellipse geometry and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, with tight interior counters and short, flat terminals that keep silhouettes blunt and efficient. The uppercase feels tall and rigid with simplified joins, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, compact build; bowls and curves read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. Numerals follow the same compressed, blocky rhythm, producing a cohesive, billboard-like texture at large sizes.
Best suited to display settings where bold, condensed letterforms need to command attention—headlines, posters, storefront or wayfinding-style signage, and energetic branding. It can also work on packaging and labels when space is limited and a strong typographic stamp is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and no-nonsense, combining a mechanical, engineered feel with a slightly friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads loud and direct, like signage or sports branding, prioritizing impact over delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a compact width, using uniform stroke weight and rounded-rectangle construction to keep forms consistent and highly legible at large sizes. Its simplified, sturdy shapes suggest a focus on branding and headline utility rather than long-form reading comfort.
At text sizes the tight apertures and narrow counters can darken lines quickly, so it performs best with generous tracking and leading. The most distinctive character comes from the superellipse curves and the consistent corner rounding, which give a modern, manufactured look even in round letters and digits.
