A monospaced sans with a modular, geometric build: straight strokes and flat terminals pair with rounded corners that give curves a softened, superelliptic feel. The drawing is even and consistent, with squared-off counters and clear right angles in many joins, producing a tidy, grid-friendly rhythm. Round letters (C, O, Q) read more like rounded rectangles than true circles, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay crisp and controlled. Overall spacing is uniform and predictable, supporting a steady texture in both the uppercase/lowercase set and the numerals.
Well-suited to coding environments, terminal or console interfaces, and developer tooling where fixed-width alignment is essential. It also fits tabular layouts, logs, specifications, and other technical documentation that benefits from an orderly, evenly paced text color at small to medium sizes.
The tone is practical and matter-of-fact, leaning toward a contemporary, technical voice rather than expressive or decorative. Its rounded-rect geometry adds a mild friendliness without losing the disciplined, engineered character typical of terminal-style monospace designs.
The design appears intended to provide a clean, legible monospace with a modern, rounded-rect geometry that feels structured and UI-ready. It prioritizes consistency and alignment while softening the overall impression through rounded corners and controlled, simplified letterforms.
Distinctive identifying shapes include a single-storey “a” and “g,” a simple, open “e,” and a plain, slab-like treatment of “I” and “l” that keeps the set visually consistent. Numerals share the same rounded-rect logic, with clear, straightforward forms designed to hold alignment in columns and code-like layouts.
