A heavy, geometric sans with a broad stance and squared-off, rounded-rectangle construction. Curves are drawn as superellipse-like bowls with flattened sides, while corners are smoothly radiused, creating a distinctly “rounded-square” rhythm. Strokes are uniform and dense, with mostly square terminals and minimal modulation, producing a solid, display-forward texture. Spacing feels open due to the wide proportions, and counters stay relatively generous for the weight, supporting clarity at larger sizes.
Best suited to display typography where its width and mass can be appreciated: branding and wordmarks, posters, titles, packaging, and bold wayfinding or signage. It can also work for UI or product labeling when used sparingly for emphasis, such as headers, buttons, or feature callouts.
The overall tone is contemporary and synthetic, with a sci‑fi/tech interface feel. Its wide, blocky forms read as assertive and engineered, giving headlines a confident, modern edge without becoming harsh thanks to the softened corners.
The design appears intended to fuse geometric clarity with softened, rounded-square forms, delivering a modern, technical voice while preserving legibility through open counters and consistent stroke weight. Its proportions prioritize impact and presence, aiming for a distinctive, engineered silhouette in short text.
Several key shapes emphasize the squared geometry—rounded rectangular O/Q forms, boxy bowls in letters like B/P, and a single-storey a with a compact, squared counter. The numerals follow the same construction with broad, stable silhouettes, reinforcing a cohesive, system-like look across letters and figures.
