A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, with counters that stay open but tend toward squared, superellipse-like shapes (notably in O, D, and 0). Curves transition into straight segments with broad radii, producing compact, stable silhouettes and a low-contrast, machined rhythm. Terminals are blunt and clean, and diagonals (K, X, V, W) are simplified into sturdy, angular joins that keep the overall texture even.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, logos, packaging callouts, and signage where its bold, rounded geometry can carry the design. It also works well for tech or product branding that wants a friendly, retro-leaning voice.
The overall tone is confident and approachable, combining a playful softness with a utilitarian, tech-forward solidity. Its chunky forms and rounded geometry evoke retro-futurist and arcade-era sensibilities while still reading as modern and clean.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a softened, geometric character—using superellipse-like rounds and blunt terminals to balance strength with approachability. It prioritizes a consistent, modular rhythm that stays legible while feeling distinctive at display sizes.
The font’s weight creates a strong, dark page color, and the rounded-square bowls give many letters a subtly modular feel. The sample text shows good presence at display sizes, where the simplified joins and generous mass become a defining visual feature.
