A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing a compact, blocky silhouette and consistent color in text. Counters tend toward squarish ovals, apertures are fairly closed, and terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a sturdy, workmanlike rhythm; numerals are broad and simplified with similarly rounded corners.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display typography where its dense shapes and rounded geometry deliver immediate impact. It can work well for branding, packaging, and signage that needs a contemporary, friendly strength, while extended small-size reading may require generous spacing due to the tight counters.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, pairing a strong, assertive weight with softened geometry that keeps it from feeling harsh. It reads as friendly and contemporary, with a straightforward, no-nonsense confidence suited to bold messaging.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a geometric, superellipse-inspired structure that remains inviting rather than aggressive. The intention appears to be a versatile display sans that feels modern, sturdy, and highly legible at larger sizes.
The design maintains a very even texture at display sizes, with tight interior spaces that emphasize mass and impact. Its softened rectangular curves give it a distinctive ‘squared-round’ personality that stays consistent across letters and figures.
