A compact, heavy-weight sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and smooth, consistent curves. Strokes appear largely even, producing solid blocks of color, while counters are cleanly carved and generally open, keeping forms readable despite the dense weight. Terminals are mostly straight or softly rounded, and joins are tidy, giving the face a controlled, engineered rhythm. The lowercase is simple and contemporary, with single-storey forms where expected and a sturdy, vertical posture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a strong, compact sans is needed. It can work well for packaging and signage thanks to its sturdy shapes and clear counters, and it also fits short UI labels or navigational elements when set with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone feels modern and confident, with a slightly friendly edge coming from the rounded geometry. Its dense blackness and compact proportions read as assertive and practical, while the softened curves keep it from feeling harsh or overly technical.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, space-efficient voice with a contemporary geometric foundation. Rounded-rectangle curves and consistent stroke behavior suggest a focus on clarity, impact, and a distinctive silhouette in display and branding contexts.
The superelliptical rounding is especially evident in bowls and rounded letters, creating a cohesive, softly squared silhouette. Spacing in the samples looks tight-but-functional for display settings, and the numerals follow the same sturdy, geometric logic.
