A compact, heavy sans with a superelliptical construction: bowls and counters are built from rounded-rectangle geometry rather than true circles, giving curves a squared-off, engineered feel. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, terminals are clean and mostly blunt, and corners are softly rounded. Proportions are tight with short extenders and generous, solid interiors, producing a dense rhythm that stays highly legible at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, packaging, and wayfinding where a dense, high-impact voice is needed. It also works well for tech or industrial branding and short UI callouts that benefit from compact, sturdy letterforms rather than airy text color.
The overall tone feels industrial and no-nonsense—confident, practical, and slightly mechanical. Its rounded-square curves soften the weight just enough to read as contemporary rather than purely brutalist, balancing friendliness with authority.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in limited horizontal space, using rounded-rectangular geometry to create a modern, engineered character. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, consistent stroke weight, and compact proportions for clear, emphatic display typography.
The numerals and capitals read especially robust and signage-like, while lowercase forms keep the same blocky geometry and compact spacing for a uniform texture. The design favors strong silhouettes and stable counters over delicate detail, helping it hold up in bold headlines and punchy labels.
