A compact, heavy sans with squarish, superellipse-inspired bowls and softly rounded corners throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and a strong black-on-white presence. Curves tend toward rounded-rectangle geometry rather than true circles, and terminals are blunt and clean. Proportions feel condensed overall, with tight apertures and sturdy joins that keep letterforms solid at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where high impact and compact width are useful. It works especially well for short display text, badges, and bold wordmarks that benefit from a sturdy, rounded-rect look.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a slightly quirky, retro sign-painting energy. Its rounded-rect shapes and compact rhythm give it a friendly, punchy voice that reads as playful rather than formal or technical.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space while keeping the tone friendly and contemporary. The superellipse construction and blunt terminals suggest an aim for clean, modern simplicity with a hint of retro signage character.
The font’s narrow, blocky construction creates a strong vertical rhythm and makes words form dark, unified silhouettes. The numerals match the alphabet’s squarish curvature and thick weight, supporting cohesive headline typography. In longer lines, the dense texture emphasizes impact over delicacy, favoring short phrases and attention-grabbing settings.
