A heavy, compact sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangle construction: bowls and counters are built from squared curves with softened corners, producing a superelliptic, machined look. Strokes are sturdy and fairly uniform, with tight apertures and controlled terminals that read as blunt and engineered rather than calligraphic. Proportions skew tall and narrow, and the rhythm is dense and vertical, with simplified geometry and consistent corner radii across curves and joins.
Best suited to display sizes where the dense width and squared-round shapes become a graphic asset—headlines, posters, brand marks, and packaging. The sturdy forms also lend themselves well to signage, labels, and UI moments that need a compact, high-impact typographic presence.
The overall tone feels industrial and technical, like labeling on equipment or utilitarian signage. Its compressed stance and blocky rounding communicate firmness and efficiency, giving headlines a confident, no-nonsense voice with a slightly retro-futurist edge.
The design appears intended to merge geometric clarity with softened corners, creating a compact, highly legible display sans that feels engineered rather than neutral. Its consistent superelliptic construction suggests a focus on systematized shapes that remain distinctive in short words and large-scale applications.
The uppercase shows strong vertical emphasis and squarish interior spaces (notably in D/O/Q-like forms), while diagonals (K/V/W/X/Y) remain crisp and disciplined against the otherwise rounded system. Numerals follow the same softened-rectangular logic, reinforcing a cohesive, modular character across text and display settings.
