A compact sans with heavy, even strokes and softly squared, superellipse-like curves. Counters are open and simplified, with round forms tending toward rounded-rectangle geometry rather than perfect circles. Terminals are clean and mostly squared-off, producing a solid, blocky rhythm; the lowercase shows straightforward, single-storey constructions (notably the a and g) and a short, minimal-curve ear on the g. Numerals follow the same sturdy logic, with uniform weight and simple, high-contrast-free shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, labels, and prominent UI/wayfinding elements where a compact, sturdy sans can carry visual weight. It can also work for logos and packaging that benefit from a modern, industrial-geometric voice.
The overall tone is pragmatic and contemporary, projecting strength and efficiency more than elegance. Its softened corners keep it approachable while the dense strokes and tight proportions feel assertive and workmanlike.
The design appears intended to combine bold presence with a friendly, engineered geometry—using superellipse-like rounds and simplified forms to stay legible and consistent while maintaining a distinctive, compact silhouette.
At larger sizes the rounded-rectangle construction is especially apparent in letters like O, Q, and D, giving the face a distinct “softened hardware” feel. The design favors clarity and impact over calligraphic nuance, with consistent stroke weight and little modulation across the set.
