A heavy, clean sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction and broadly uniform stroke weight. Curves tend toward squarish bowls with softened corners, producing wide, stable counters in letters like C, D, O, and G. Terminals are mostly flat and decisive, with minimal flare, while joins remain sturdy and compact; overall spacing reads even and solid in both capitals and lowercase. Numerals follow the same blocky-rounded logic, with clear, simple forms and consistent heft.
Well-suited for headlines, interface labels, and product branding where a sturdy, modern sans is needed. The dense weight and rounded-square geometry also make it effective for signage and poster typography that benefits from high visual presence and clear letter shapes.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a technical, engineered feel with softened edges that keep it from seeming harsh. Its weight and compact geometry convey confidence and clarity, making it feel assertive without becoming aggressive.
The design appears intended to provide a robust, contemporary sans voice built from rounded-rectangular geometry, optimizing for a strong, consistent texture and a friendly-but-technical personality. It prioritizes clarity and impact through simplified shapes and confident proportions.
The sample text shows strong color on the page and consistent rhythm across mixed-case strings, with particularly stable round letters and a straightforward, no-nonsense lowercase. The squarish curvature gives it a distinctive silhouette that reads well at display sizes while still feeling systematic.
