A geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Curves are squared-off with generous corner radii, giving bowls and counters a compact, engineered feel. Terminals are clean and largely straight-cut; joins are firm and the overall rhythm is tight, with controlled apertures and consistent spacing that keeps word shapes dense and stable at display sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, logos, packaging, and poster typography where a compact, high-contrast-free black shape is needed. The squared-round geometry also fits interface labels, navigation, and wayfinding applications that benefit from sturdy letterforms and consistent rhythm.
The tone reads contemporary and utilitarian with a friendly edge—solid, dependable, and slightly industrial rather than expressive or calligraphic. The rounded geometry softens the weight, making it feel approachable while still assertive and high-impact.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary sans voice built from superelliptical primitives—prioritizing robustness, consistency, and a clean, engineered silhouette that holds up in large-scale and high-impact settings.
Uppercase forms are particularly blocky and uniform, while lowercase maintains simple, straightforward silhouettes with minimal modulation. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic, staying clear and sturdy for UI-like contexts. The overall effect is optimized for clarity and punch rather than delicate detail.
