A compact sans with a sturdy, geometric construction and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves throughout. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal modulation, giving the letters a solid, poster-friendly presence. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend toward closed or semi-closed, while joins and terminals stay clean and squared-off with softened corners. Proportions run condensed with tall lowercase ascenders, and the overall rhythm is dense and efficient rather than airy.
This font performs best in headlines, short UI labels, signage, and packaging where dense, compact letterforms and strong color on the page are beneficial. It can also work for brand marks and editorial display settings that want a contemporary, geometric sans texture.
The tone is modern and workmanlike, with a confident, no-nonsense voice. Its squared-but-rounded shapes feel contemporary and technical, projecting clarity and strength without becoming aggressive. The overall impression is straightforward and pragmatic, suited to messages that need to land quickly.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a geometric, rounded-rect form language that stays clean and legible. It prioritizes uniformity and visual punch, offering a contemporary alternative to standard grotesks while keeping a practical, everyday typographic posture.
Round glyphs such as C, O, and G show squarer curvature than a purely circular grotesk, reinforcing the superellipse feel. The lowercase has a single-storey a and g, and the numerals share the same compact, blocky geometry for a cohesive texture in mixed text.
