A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal contrast and a compact, sturdy texture. Round letters like O and Q read as squarish ovals; terminals are blunt and clean, and curves transition into straights with a slightly pinched, engineered feel. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy with short extenders, a single-storey a and g, and a square-ish i/j dot; numerals are equally blocky and rounded, designed to hold up at large sizes.
Best suited for headlines and display typography where its dense weight and rounded geometry create immediate presence. It also fits branding, packaging, and short UI or signage labels that benefit from a sturdy, friendly voice, especially in larger sizes and high-contrast layouts.
The overall tone is confident and approachable, balancing industrial solidity with friendly rounding. It feels contemporary and energetic, with a slightly playful, arcade-or-sports flavor driven by the squarish rounds and bold, compact rhythm.
The design appears intended to merge a geometric, engineered skeleton with softened edges for approachability. Its squarish rounds and uniform stroke weight suggest a focus on strong silhouettes, quick recognition, and contemporary display impact rather than delicate detail.
Counters tend to be tight and rectangular, which boosts impact but can make dense text feel dark at smaller sizes. The Q’s tail and the squarish bowls in letters like B, D, P, and R reinforce the superellipse theme and give the alphabet a distinctive, system-like uniformity.
