A heavy, geometric sans with forms built from rounded rectangles and softened corners. Strokes are consistently thick with blunt terminals and minimal modulation, producing compact counters and a dense, blocky silhouette. Curves resolve into squarish bowls (notably in O/C/D and 0/8/9), while joins stay smooth and cushioned rather than sharp. Lowercase shapes echo the uppercase structure with sturdy stems, short apertures, and simplified details, keeping the overall texture uniform and bold.
Best suited to display typography where strong presence is needed: posters, headline systems, packaging fronts, and bold wordmarks. It also fits product branding and signage-style applications where a compact, rounded-block aesthetic helps deliver legibility and impact at larger sizes.
The overall tone is sturdy and upbeat, combining an industrial, sign-like solidity with soft, approachable rounding. Its chunky geometry reads as retro-leaning and playful rather than technical, giving headlines a confident, friendly impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a soft-edged, geometric construction, balancing toughness and friendliness. By using squared-rounded bowls and blunt terminals, it aims to create a distinctive, easily recognizable voice for short, emphatic text.
The narrow openings and tight interior spaces increase the sense of mass, especially in smaller sizes or dense settings. Numerals follow the same squared-rounded logic, staying highly consistent with the alphabet and reinforcing a strong, poster-oriented rhythm.
