A heavy, block-forward sans with squarish curves and a compact, engineered feel. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many joins resolve into crisp, right-angled decisions that give round letters a slightly squarish silhouette. Counters are relatively tight, apertures tend to be more closed than open, and terminals read clean and blunt rather than tapered. Overall spacing feels firm and even, producing a dense, high-ink texture in words and lines.
Best suited to short to medium lengths where strong weight and compact counters create immediate impact—headlines, posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for labels, UI headings, and technical or industrial-themed graphics where a sturdy, uniform texture is desirable.
The tone is practical and no-nonsense, leaning industrial and technical rather than friendly or expressive. Its sturdy geometry and restrained detailing project authority and clarity, with a subtle, workmanlike monotone that suits functional communication.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum legibility and punch with a controlled, geometric construction and minimal stylistic distraction. Its squared-round forms and blunt terminals suggest a focus on dependable, utilitarian display and headline use rather than delicate text nuance.
Curves in letters like C, G, O, and S appear built from rounded rectangles or squashed ovals, creating a slightly squared-round rhythm. The numerals follow the same rugged construction, maintaining consistent weight and presence alongside the caps and lowercase.
