A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are blunt and rounded rather than tapered. Counters tend toward narrow, vertically oriented openings, while bowls and arches read as superelliptical shapes, giving letters a compact, blocky silhouette. Spacing feels steady and utilitarian, and the figures mirror the same rounded, squared-off geometry for a cohesive set.
Best suited for headlines, posters, logos, and packaging where its chunky geometry and distinctive inner shapes can be appreciated. It can also work well for signage and UI labels in short bursts, especially where a retro-tech or playful industrial tone is desired.
The overall tone is upbeat and slightly retro, with a display-forward personality that feels both friendly and mechanical. Its rounded corners soften the weight, while the squared forms add a technical, signage-like confidence.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, constructed look built from rounded rectangles, balancing approachability with a modernist, modular feel. The distinctive interior shaping suggests an emphasis on memorable display impact over quiet text neutrality.
Several glyphs show distinctive cut-ins and notches that create a stenciled or modular impression, adding character at larger sizes. The shapes remain highly consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, reinforcing a constructed, system-like rhythm.
