A heavy, squared sans with consistently rounded corners and superellipse-like bowls. Strokes are uniform and blocky, with a compact, vertical rhythm and slightly condensed internal counters that keep forms tight. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle geometry rather than true circles, and many joins are softened with generous radii. Several glyphs show distinctive cut-ins/notches and straight-sided apertures, adding a mechanical, engineered feel while maintaining clean, upright alignment.
Best suited to high-impact display settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and short callouts where the dense weight and squared forms can carry visual authority. It also works well for signage-style applications that benefit from sturdy, simplified letterforms.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with an industrial, retro-technical character reminiscent of signage, machinery labeling, and punchy display typography. Its rounded squareness keeps it friendly enough for branding while still reading as rugged and utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through compact, rounded-rect geometry and uniform stroke weight, balancing hard-edged industrial structure with softened corners for approachable, modern usability.
The numerals and capitals appear especially strong and uniform, producing dark, even texture in headlines. The squared counters and occasional notch details increase distinctiveness but also make the face feel more specialized than neutral text sans in longer passages.
