A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly radiused corners throughout. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with large interior counters that stay open despite the weight. Curves read as squarish superellipses rather than perfect circles, and terminals are generally flat with subtle rounding, giving the letters a carved-from-block feel. The rhythm is steady and tightly set, with simplified joins and a strong, even color that holds up well in large sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where impact and clarity matter: posters, event titles, bold branding, packaging fronts, and signage. It can also work for large UI labels or badges where a friendly, high-contrast-in-size silhouette helps quick recognition.
The overall tone is confident and approachable, combining a sturdy, poster-like presence with soft geometry that feels friendly rather than harsh. Its squarish roundness and chunky proportions suggest a retro, pop-signage energy—playful, direct, and highly legible at a glance.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that stays approachable by trading sharp corners for superelliptical rounding. It aims to deliver strong typographic color and quick readability while evoking a slightly nostalgic, pop-industrial feel.
The uppercase forms are particularly broad-shouldered and symmetrical, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey feel where applicable, reinforcing an informal, accessible voice. Numerals match the same blocky curvature and read clearly in display settings.
