A compact, heavy sans with squared, superellipse-style curves and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are thick and even, with large counters that keep letters open despite the dense weight. Proportions are vertically emphatic and horizontally tight, producing a strong, stacked rhythm in lines of text. Terminals are blunt and clean, and joins stay crisp, giving the design a sturdy, engineered feel across both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short bursts of copy where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It works well for branding systems, packaging, and signage that benefit from a strong silhouette and efficient width, and can also function in UI labels or callouts when set with sufficient size and spacing.
The tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with an industrial, poster-driven energy. Its tight footprint and dense color read as confident and functional, leaning more toward impact and clarity than softness or elegance.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual punch in limited horizontal space, using squared, rounded forms to stay contemporary while remaining highly legible at display sizes. Its consistent stroke weight and blunt detailing suggest an emphasis on durability, clarity, and straightforward communication.
The design’s rounded-rectangle geometry is especially evident in bowls and curved letters, which feel squarish rather than circular. Numerals follow the same compact, heavy construction, maintaining a consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
