A compact, heavy sans with monolinear strokes and a distinctly squared, superellipse skeleton. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls, producing flat-ish sides and softly radiused corners rather than purely circular forms. Terminals are clean and blunt, counters are tight, and the overall rhythm is dense with short apertures and minimal internal white space. Uppercase forms are tall and straight-sided, while the lowercase keeps similarly squared bowls with simplified joins, creating a consistent, engineered texture across words.
Best used where space is limited and a strong, compact voice is needed—headlines, posters, large UI labels, packaging callouts, and sports or event branding. It can also work for signage and wayfinding at larger sizes, where its tight apertures and dense texture remain clear.
The face reads confident and utilitarian, with a compact footprint that feels efficient and no-nonsense. Its rounded-rectangle geometry adds a subtle retro-tech flavor—more friendly than purely squared grotesks, but still tough and mechanical. The overall tone is punchy and attention-forward, suited to messages that need to land quickly.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact in a narrow footprint while maintaining a cohesive rounded-rectangle motif. By combining blunt terminals, tight counters, and squared bowls, it prioritizes strong typographic color and a distinctive geometric identity for display-first applications.
Several glyphs emphasize the squared theme (notably the rounded-rect bowls in letters like O, D, P, and lowercase o/p), and the narrow set width makes spacing feel naturally tight. Numerals follow the same blocky, rounded-corner logic, keeping a uniform color in mixed alphanumeric settings.
