A heavy geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle forms, with squared counters and softened corners that read as a superellipse structure. Strokes are broadly uniform, with flat terminals and a generally monoline feel, while joins stay crisp and rectangular. The alphabet shows a mix of squared bowls (O, D, P) and angular cut-ins (S, C, G), giving the face a modular, constructed rhythm. Lowercase follows the same boxy logic with compact apertures and sturdy stems, and the numerals are similarly squared and tight, favoring strong silhouettes over delicate detailing.
Best suited to display sizes where its chunky geometry and squared counters can read cleanly: headlines, posters, branding marks, product packaging, and tech or entertainment titles. It can also work for short UI labels or scoreboard-style treatments where a bold, futuristic texture is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and technical, evoking digital interfaces, machinery labels, and retro-futurist display typography. Its rounded corners keep it approachable, but the blocky geometry and squared counters push it toward a distinctly synthetic, game-like voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, modular shapes—combining rectangular structure with rounded corners to create a contemporary techno/arcade aesthetic while staying highly legible at large sizes.
Many glyphs emphasize straight-sided bowls and inset counters, creating a consistent stamped or molded feel. The design maintains strong visual uniformity across letters and figures, supporting punchy word shapes and high-impact headlines.
