A heavy, geometric sans with squarish, superellipse-driven bowls and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, producing compact counters and a strong, block-like silhouette. Curves resolve into flattened arcs rather than circles, and joins stay clean and controlled, giving the design a crisp, engineered rhythm. The lowercase follows the same modular construction, with sturdy verticals, short terminals, and clearly differentiated figures.
Best suited to headlines and short text where impact and structure are desired—posters, packaging, bold brand wordmarks, and product labeling. It also works well for signage and interface moments that benefit from sturdy, squared letterforms and high visual presence.
The overall tone is utilitarian and contemporary, leaning toward a technical, industrial feel. Its compact, squared forms read as assertive and efficient, with a subtle retro-digital flavor that suggests instrumentation, labeling, and machinery rather than calligraphy or warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary geometric voice built from rounded-rectangle primitives, prioritizing solidity and clarity over delicacy. Its consistent corner rounding and uniform stroke logic suggest a goal of creating an efficient, modular display sans with a technical edge.
Round characters (such as O/0 and C) appear as rounded rectangles, and many terminals are blunt with softened corners, emphasizing a fabricated, machined look. The numerals are similarly squared and robust, supporting clear, high-impact settings in display sizes.
