A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions softened by rounded corners and superellipse-like curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and a strong vertical rhythm. Letterforms favor straight-sided geometry—seen in the rectangular bowls and arched terminals—while maintaining smooth internal rounding that keeps shapes from feeling sharp. Uppercase is tall and tight, lowercase is sturdy and compact, and numerals follow the same blocky, rounded-rectangle construction for a cohesive set.
Best suited for display roles such as headlines, posters, labels, and signage where a compact footprint and strong presence help maximize impact. It also fits branding systems that want a modern, industrial voice, especially in tight horizontal spaces where condensed caps and dense forms are advantageous.
The overall tone is industrial and no-nonsense, combining a technical, engineered feel with a friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads as confident and assertive, suited to messages that need to feel direct and efficient rather than delicate or expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch and legibility in a condensed, geometric voice, using rounded-rectangle construction to keep the texture smooth and contemporary. It prioritizes consistency and solidity across caps, lowercase, and figures to perform reliably in bold, attention-driven typography.
The spacing and proportions create a solid “wall of text” effect, with dark texture at display sizes and clear, simple silhouettes. Curved letters like C, G, O, and Q are built from squarish rounds, and punctuation/dots appear robust and well-matched to the heavy stroke weight.
