A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with superellipse geometry and softened corners throughout. Strokes are monolinear and highly uniform, with broad proportions and a high, dominant x-height that keeps lowercase forms large and compact. Counters are small and often squarish/rounded, and internal apertures tend to be tight, giving the face a dense, “ink-trap-free” block presence. Terminals are blunt and rounded, curves transition into flats smoothly, and the overall rhythm is steady and modular, more constructed than calligraphic.
Well suited to display applications that benefit from a dense, confident word shape—headlines, logos, product marks, packaging, and bold signage. It can also work for UI titles or game/tech graphics where a rounded, futuristic block aesthetic is desired, especially at larger sizes.
The tone is bold and game-like, combining a soft, friendly rounding with a strong, industrial solidity. It reads as contemporary and tech-forward, with a slightly retro arcade/sci‑fi flavor driven by its wide stance and squared curves.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive rounded-rect construction, prioritizing a strong silhouette and a contemporary, techy feel. Its high x-height and tight, squared counters emphasize compactness and consistency, supporting bold, space-efficient display typography.
The sample text shows strong headline impact and consistent texture across long lines, but the tight counters and compact openings suggest it will look best when given generous size and/or tracking. Numerals match the same rounded-rect logic, and the overall set feels designed for punchy display rather than delicate nuance.
