A heavy, compact sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with broad strokes, softened corners, and largely closed counters. Curves are smooth and geometric, while joins and terminals stay blunt and squared-off, creating a dense, poster-like texture in text. The lowercase is wide-set and sturdy with a large x-height and minimal differentiation in stroke weight; shapes like a, e, g, and s read as simplified, rounded constructions. Numerals match the same chunky geometry, with tight interior spaces and a consistent, engineered rhythm across the set.
Best suited for headlines and short, emphatic copy where maximum weight and clear, blocky word shapes are desired. It fits branding systems that need a robust geometric voice, as well as packaging, signage, and sports or industrial-themed graphics where dense letterforms hold their own against busy layouts.
The overall tone is assertive and no-nonsense, trading elegance for impact. Its rounded geometry keeps the voice friendly enough for consumer use, but the dense silhouettes and compact apertures push it toward a strong, workmanlike, display presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with softened geometry—combining rounded superellipse construction with blunt terminals for strong, contemporary display typography.
At text sizes the tight counters and horizontal density can create a dark color, while at larger sizes the rounded-square construction and consistent curves become a defining stylistic feature. The sample paragraphs show a forceful headline cadence with strong word shapes and little delicacy in interior detail.
