A compact, heavy sans with squared proportions softened by rounded, superellipse-like corners. Strokes stay consistently thick, producing dense counters and a strong, even color in text. Curves (C, O, S) feel built from rounded rectangles rather than pure circles, while diagonals in A, V, W, and Y are sharply cut and tightly spaced. The lowercase is straightforward and sturdy, with compact bowls and minimal modulation; apertures are relatively small, reinforcing the compressed, blocky rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where a dense, compact bold can maximize space: headlines, posters, signage, and packaging. It can also work for branding systems that want an industrial, geometric voice, though longer text will feel heavy due to the tight counters and strong overall color.
The overall tone is forceful and pragmatic—confident without ornament, with a distinctly engineered feel. Rounded corners keep it approachable, but the condensed mass and tight counters read as assertive and no-nonsense.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch and legibility in constrained widths, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep forms consistent and contemporary. It prioritizes a uniform, constructed look that holds up well in large sizes and bold display contexts.
In paragraphs, the font maintains a steady cadence and strong presence, with punctuation and dots reading as firm, geometric accents. Numerals match the same compact, squarish construction, supporting a cohesive, system-like appearance across mixed content.
