A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle forms, with broad strokes and softly radiused corners throughout. The silhouette language favors squarish bowls and counters (notably in O, C, D, and the numerals), producing a strong, compact texture. Many apertures are relatively narrow and terminals tend to end in flat cuts with rounded edges, giving the letters a machined, modular feel. Lowercase shapes are simple and sturdy, with single-story a and g, short ascenders, and broad shoulders; punctuation and dots are round and substantial, matching the overall weight.
Best suited for large-scale typography where its blocky shapes and rounded-square forms can read clearly and deliver impact—headlines, posters, identity marks, product packaging, and bold labels. It also works well for short UI titles or signage where a strong, modern-industrial texture is desired, while longer paragraphs may feel heavy due to the dense color and compact apertures.
The tone is bold and confident with a tech-forward, arcade-like flavor. Its softened corners keep the voice friendly rather than harsh, balancing industrial solidity with a playful, graphic presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch using a consistent superelliptic geometry—combining squared construction with rounded corners for a contemporary, digital-friendly look. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a uniform, poster-ready rhythm over fine detail or calligraphic nuance.
Spacing reads intentionally tight and dense, creating an even, dark rhythm in text. The numerals are highly geometric with squared counters, and diagonal letters (like V, W, X, Y) remain chunky and stable rather than sharp or delicate.
