A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Strokes are broadly uniform with subtle contrast, and terminals are clean and squared-off with softened corners. Counters tend to be compact and slightly squarish, giving letters a dense, sturdy rhythm and a strong typographic color. Curves in C, G, O, and S feel engineered rather than calligraphic, and the numerals follow the same thick, stable, rounded-block logic for consistent texture in mixed settings.
Well suited for headlines, short statements, and branding where a bold, modern presence is needed. It can work effectively on packaging and signage thanks to its sturdy forms and simplified geometry. For longer text, it’s better used sparingly or with added spacing to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, combining a utilitarian, industrial backbone with approachable rounded corners. It reads as straightforward and dependable, with a friendly softness that keeps the weight from feeling harsh. The density and tight interior spaces lend it a punchy, attention-grabbing voice.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a contemporary, rounded-geometric personality. The consistent superelliptical shaping and dense typographic color suggest an emphasis on strong display performance and a cohesive, system-like feel across letters and figures.
At larger sizes the rounded-square geometry is especially distinctive, while in longer lines the weight creates a strong, poster-like presence. The compact counters and heavy joins suggest it will look best with generous tracking and leading when used for multi-line copy.
