A heavy, blocky sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with broad horizontal spans and compact interior counters that often take on pill and squircle shapes. Curves resolve into flattened arcs rather than true circles, and diagonals (as in K, V, W, X, Z and the numerals) feel engineered and cleanly cut. The lowercase is built on a tall x-height with simple, mostly single-storey forms, producing a tight, sturdy texture in running text.
Best suited to display settings where a strong silhouette matters: headlines, posters, tech or gaming branding, product marks, and punchy packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when ample size and spacing are available, as the tight counters and heavy mass can reduce clarity at smaller sizes.
The overall tone reads futuristic and mechanical, with a confident, high-impact presence. Its squarish roundness suggests digital interfaces, sci‑fi titling, and performance branding rather than warmth or tradition.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact, techno-forward look by combining squared geometry with rounded corners and consistent stroke weight, creating durable shapes that hold together in bold display applications.
Round letters like O/Q and 0 are distinctly superelliptical, while terminals and joins stay blunt and consistent, reinforcing a modular rhythm. The numerals are similarly stylized, with wide, streamlined forms and reduced apertures that emphasize solidity.
