A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms with large counters and crisp, uniform stroke weight. Corners are consistently softened, producing squared bowls and squarish rounds in letters like O, Q, and D, while straight-sided construction dominates across the set. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with occasional angled cuts (notably in A, K, V, W, X, and Y) that add a mechanical, engineered feel. Proportions are compact and sturdy, with a tall x-height and minimal stroke modulation; curves transition quickly into straights, keeping the overall rhythm tight and punchy.
Best suited to display contexts where strong presence and quick recognition are needed, such as headlines, posters, sports or tech branding, packaging, and short signage. The large x-height and open counters help it stay readable at medium sizes, especially in all-caps or punchy title lines.
The overall tone feels modern and utilitarian, with a distinctly tech-forward, athletic edge. Its rounded-square geometry reads confident and functional rather than friendly, evoking interfaces, equipment labeling, and performance branding.
The design appears intended to merge strict geometric construction with softened corners, creating a robust, contemporary voice that remains approachable enough for mainstream branding. Its consistent squared-round language suggests an emphasis on uniformity and impact across letters and numerals.
Several glyphs emphasize squareness: C and G are open, boxy arcs; O and Q are rounded rectangles with clear, generous inner shapes. The numeral set follows the same squared-softened logic (e.g., 0 and 8 are rounded-rect counters; 1 is a simple, angled-topped stem), supporting consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
