A heavy, extended sans with a rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) construction throughout. Strokes are uniform and dense, with soft corners and flat terminals that create a sturdy, machined silhouette. Counters tend toward squarish apertures with generous rounding, and curves resolve into broad, controlled arcs rather than circular bowls. The lowercase is compact and wide with a large x-height and minimal stroke modulation; punctuation and numerals follow the same squared, modular logic, including a clearly differentiated slashed zero.
Best suited to display roles where impact and a technical tone are desired: headlines, brand marks, event posters, product packaging, and UI titling in games or dashboards. It also works well for short labels and signage-style applications where a sturdy, extended word shape improves presence.
The overall tone is modern and engineered, leaning toward sci‑fi interfaces, motorsport, and equipment labeling. Its wide stance and softened corners feel both assertive and approachable, delivering a strong “tech hardware” personality without becoming sharp or aggressive.
The letterforms appear designed to systematize geometry around rounded rectangles, producing a confident, contemporary display sans optimized for bold branding and interface-like communication.
The design maintains consistent corner radii and a tight, gridlike rhythm that reads especially cohesive at large sizes. Wide proportions and closed apertures give it strong headline presence, while also making it feel intentionally compact and utilitarian in texture.
