A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) bowls and softly squared corners throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, creating a compact, solid silhouette and strong color on the page. Counters tend to be rounded and slightly rectangular, and terminals are blunt, producing a clean, engineered rhythm. The lowercase is sturdy and compact, with a single-storey “a” and “g” and a simple, utilitarian “t,” while figures are wide and highly legible with a distinctly rectangular construction.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding where strong typographic impact is needed. Its compact, rounded geometry also works well for packaging and signage, and for UI labels or badges when a firm, modern voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, balancing an industrial, engineered feel with approachable rounded forms. It reads as bold and dependable rather than delicate, with a straightforward, no-nonsense voice that still feels friendly due to the softened corners.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability through simplified geometric construction and rounded-square forms. It prioritizes clarity, consistency, and a contemporary industrial character that holds up well in large sizes and short, emphatic lines of text.
At text sizes it maintains a dense, impactful texture, with clear differentiation between characters (notably the open shapes in C, S, and the rounded-square 0/8). The squared geometry and tight interior spaces make it particularly effective when you want maximum presence without decorative flourish.
