A heavy, geometric sans with squared proportions and generously rounded corners, where curves are built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms. Strokes are broadly uniform, producing a dense, even color and strong sign-like presence. Counters are compact and squarish (notably in O, o, 8, 9), and many joins and terminals resolve into softened corners rather than sharp points. Lowercase forms are sturdy and simplified, with single-storey a and g, a short-shouldered r, and a compact, closed e; figures follow the same rounded-rect geometry with robust, centered shapes.
This style excels at display sizes where its dense weight and rounded-rect construction can read as a deliberate graphic statement—headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and wayfinding. It also suits interface titles and feature callouts where a sturdy, modern sans is needed, though its tight counters suggest giving it comfortable sizing and spacing for longer text.
The overall tone is contemporary and no-nonsense, combining industrial solidity with softened edges that keep it approachable. It feels assertive and pragmatic, with a subtle tech and UI flavor thanks to the squared curves and compact interiors.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, modern sans voice with geometric discipline, using rounded corners to soften an otherwise industrial, block-forward structure. The consistent superellipse-like construction suggests an aim for a cohesive, UI-friendly, contemporary look that remains distinctive at a glance.
The rhythm is tight and highly consistent across letters, with wide, stable verticals and minimal modulation. Diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Y read crisp against the rounded geometry, creating a clear, high-impact texture in headlines.
