A heavy, compact display face built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are thick and largely even, with softly squared curves that keep counters open while maintaining a dense, blocky footprint. Terminals tend to finish with rounded corners rather than sharp cuts, and many forms show gently flattened arcs (notably in C, S, and numerals), creating a consistent superelliptic rhythm. The lowercase is sturdy and simple, with single-storey a and g, a short-armed r, and a prominent, slab-like dot on i/j; proportions remain tight with minimal interior detailing for maximum silhouette strength.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and logo wordmarks where its chunky forms and rounded-rectangle construction can read clearly. It also works well for short signage and label-style applications, especially when set with a bit of extra spacing to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is bold and assertive with a friendly, retro edge. Its rounded corners and squared curves give it an approachable, slightly playful character while still reading as strong and utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while keeping a soft, contemporary edge through rounded corners and squared curves. It prioritizes bold silhouette recognition and consistent geometric rhythm over fine detail, making it well matched to attention-grabbing display typography.
In text, the dense weight and compact letterforms create a dark typographic color that benefits from generous tracking and line spacing. Narrow apertures in letters like e and s can close up at smaller sizes, while the distinctive superellipse shaping becomes a key feature in larger settings.
