A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and strongly squared counters. Strokes are uniform and dense, with soft corner radii that keep the overall texture smooth despite the blocky shapes. Curves tend to resolve into flattened arcs rather than true circles, and joins are clean and mechanically consistent. The lowercase is sturdy and compact, with short-looking extenders and a single-storey “a,” while figures follow the same squared, rounded-corner logic for a cohesive rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where mass and shape can do the work: headlines, posters, logotypes, and bold brand systems. It also fits packaging, apparel/merch graphics, and UI marketing moments (hero text, banners) where a compact, geometric voice is desirable.
The tone is modern and engineered, balancing friendliness from the rounded corners with a confident, no-nonsense weight. Its squarish geometry reads tech-forward and sporty, suggesting speed, hardware, and contemporary product aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric impact with a recognizable rounded-rectangle motif, prioritizing strong silhouettes and consistency across the set. It aims for high visual presence and a modern, tech-leaning character while keeping edges approachable through softened corners.
The letterforms emphasize clear, simplified silhouettes with minimal modulation, giving a strong billboard-like presence. Rounded corners and squared bowls create a distinctive “soft-rectangle” signature that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
