A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like shapes. Strokes are consistently thick, with broad, open counters and a compact, low-contrast construction. Corners are heavily radiused, producing squarish curves in letters like C, O, and G, while diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, Y, and Z stay crisp and angular. The lowercase follows the same squared-round logic with single-storey forms and short, sturdy ascenders; the numerals echo the letterforms with flattened curves and wide, stable proportions.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short display copy where its wide, rounded-square forms can define a strong visual identity. It also works well for tech, gaming, sports, and product packaging applications that benefit from a robust, modern tone and high contrast against backgrounds.
The overall tone feels futuristic and machine-made, with a smooth, molded look that reads as modern-tech and slightly retro-digital at the same time. Its wide, rounded geometry gives it a confident, sporty presence that suits bold, attention-seeking typography.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangular, industrial geometry into a friendly-but-assertive display sans. By combining soft corner radii with firm, squared bowls and simplified construction, it aims for quick recognition, strong branding, and a distinctive futuristic texture in large sizes.
Spacing and silhouettes are designed for impact: wide letterforms, generous apertures, and simplified joins keep shapes clear at display sizes. The rounded-square motif is highly consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a strong, branded texture when set in lines of text.
