A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes stay essentially uniform, producing dense, dark letterforms with clean, vertical rhythm and minimal modulation. Curves are squared-off into superellipse-like bowls and terminals, with counters kept relatively tight; round letters such as O, Q, and 8 read as rounded boxes. The lowercase is sturdy and space-efficient, with short extenders and a tall x-height feel, while the numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, engineered geometry that favors straight sides and squared arches.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It also fits signage and UI callouts that benefit from a sturdy, space-saving sans with a distinctly geometric, rounded-rectangle flavor.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, arcade-era graphics, and pragmatic tech interfaces. Its compact shapes and blunt terminals feel confident and slightly retro, with a no-nonsense presence suited to attention-grabbing display settings.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual impact in limited horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle geometry to create a cohesive, industrial-meets-retro identity. It prioritizes bold texture and consistent, engineered forms over delicate detail, making it effective for strong display typography.
The design’s squared curves and tight internal spaces create strong texture and punch at larger sizes, while fine gaps and counters may close up as sizes get small or when used on low-resolution outputs. The narrow widths and tall lowercase proportions help keep headlines concise without losing weight.
