A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than circular bowls, giving letters a squared, superelliptical feel. Strokes are thick and even with minimal modulation, and counters stay relatively tight, especially in letters like B, P, and R. Terminals are blunt and consistently rounded, with a steady vertical stance and a low-to-moderate aperture in forms such as C, S, and e. Figures follow the same blocky rhythm, with wide, stable shapes and rounded interior counters.
Best suited to display typography where weight and shape can carry the message: headlines, posters, and bold brand marks. It also fits wayfinding-style signage and packaging where a sturdy, high-contrast presence against the background is needed. For long passages, generous size and spacing help preserve clarity due to the tight interior spaces.
The overall tone is assertive and functional, like signage lettering that has been softened for approachability. Its chunky geometry reads confident and contemporary, leaning toward utilitarian and sport/tech energy rather than refined or literary. Rounded corners keep the voice friendly while maintaining strong punch and presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive rounded-rectangle language, pairing robust strokes with softened corners for a modern, approachable take on heavy sans lettering. It emphasizes strong silhouettes and consistent rhythm for attention-grabbing, graphic typography.
The set shows a consistent squared skeleton across both uppercase and lowercase, with straightforward, legible silhouettes and minimal stylistic quirks. At smaller sizes the dense counters may darken, while at display sizes the superelliptical geometry becomes a defining texture.
