A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions and strongly rounded corners that give counters and curves a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle feel. Strokes are uniform and dense, with tight interior spaces and a firm, vertical stance. Terminals are blunt and clean, and the overall rhythm is condensed with short ascenders/descenders relative to the cap height, producing a solid, compact texture in text. Numerals and capitals share the same sturdy, engineered construction, prioritizing bold silhouette clarity over delicate detail.
Best suited to short-form display work where dense strokes and condensed proportions create strong visual presence: headlines, posters, wayfinding/signage, packaging, and bold brand marks. It can also work for UI labels or badges when set with generous spacing and at sufficiently large sizes to keep counters open.
The tone is forceful and contemporary, balancing toughness with a friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads as utilitarian and energetic—more about impact and immediacy than refinement—suggesting modern signage, athletic branding, and high-contrast headline settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while maintaining a clean, geometric voice. Rounded corners and superelliptical curves soften the mass, aiming for a modern, approachable boldness that still feels engineered and efficient.
Round forms (O, C, G, Q, 0) appear more squarish than circular, reinforcing the geometric, superellipse-based construction. The weight and tight apertures can reduce letter differentiation at smaller sizes, while at larger sizes the simplified shapes feel confident and highly legible.
