A geometric, modular sans built from straight strokes and softly rounded corners. Forms lean toward squared and octagonal contours, with frequent open apertures and segmented bowls that create a wireframe, outline-like rhythm. Corners are consistently radiused, terminals are blunt, and diagonals are used sparingly but crisply (notably in K, V, W, X, and Z). Proportions feel expansive and horizontal, with simplified counters and an overall engineered, schematic construction that remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Well-suited for headlines, logotypes, and short phrases in technology, gaming, and sci‑fi themed design. It also fits interface mockups, product concepts, and motion graphics where a schematic, geometric voice is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The font conveys a futuristic, technical mood—clean, precise, and slightly retro-digital. Its open, constructed shapes suggest interface lettering and sci‑fi titling, with a calm, clinical tone rather than playful or hand-drawn energy.
The design appears intended to translate a grid-based, constructed geometry into a clean sans system with a distinctive, futuristic silhouette. By emphasizing squared curves, open apertures, and consistent rounded corners, it aims to feel engineered and contemporary while retaining a recognizable display identity.
Readability is strongest at display sizes where the segmented bowls and open joins are clearly resolved; at smaller sizes the minimal stroke weight and open counters may reduce clarity. Numerals follow the same squared, modular logic, and punctuation is minimal and linear, matching the system-like aesthetic.
