A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls and counters, producing a square-leaning roundness in letters such as O, C, and G. Strokes are monolinear with broad, stable terminals; diagonals (V, W, X, Y, Z) keep crisp angles while maintaining a substantial, blocky presence. Spacing is generous and the shapes feel slightly expanded, with compact internal counters that emphasize mass and legibility at display sizes. Figures follow the same squared-round logic, with sturdy, closed forms and simple, bold silhouettes.
Best suited to display typography where bold presence and clear silhouettes matter: headlines, poster work, brand marks, packaging, and wayfinding. It can also work for short UI labels or callouts when a friendly, solid tone is desired, though the dense counters suggest keeping text sizes comfortably large.
The overall tone is approachable and modern, combining a friendly softness from the rounded corners with a confident, high-impact weight. It reads as sporty and tech-adjacent—clean, direct, and energetic—while avoiding sharpness or austerity.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft-edged geometric character—pairing sturdy, simplified forms with rounded-rectangle curves for a distinctive, contemporary voice that remains highly legible in large settings.
The lowercase is straightforward and robust, with single-storey a and g contributing to a casual, contemporary voice. Openings in letters like e and s are kept relatively tight, reinforcing a dense, punchy texture in paragraphs and headlines alike.
