A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like curves, giving counters and bowls a squarish softness rather than pure circles. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and corners tend to be smoothly radiused, producing a sturdy, blocky silhouette. The lowercase is compact with a single-story “a” and “g,” a flat-footed, short-armed “r,” and a broad, horizontal emphasis throughout; joins and terminals are clean and engineered. Figures are similarly robust and simplified, with open, squared curves and straight cuts that keep forms crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography—headlines, logotypes, packaging, and poster work—where its bold mass and squared-round geometry can carry personality. It can also serve for short UI labels or navigation elements when a strong, modern, tech-leaning voice is desired.
The overall tone is confident and contemporary, mixing a friendly roundedness with an assertive, industrial heft. Its squared curves read as tech-forward and slightly retro-digital, offering approachability without losing a strong, utilitarian presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive “soft-square” geometric look: strong, simplified letterforms with rounded corners that evoke digital hardware and modern product aesthetics. It prioritizes impact and clarity in large sizes while maintaining a friendly, contemporary character.
Round letters like O/C/G lean toward squircle geometry, while straight-sided letters (E/F/H/N) maintain crisp, rectilinear structure, creating a consistent rounded-tech rhythm. Apertures are moderately open and spacing feels generous for the weight, helping large headlines stay readable despite the mass.
