A monospaced, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves are softened into squarish bowls and counters, giving letters like C, O, and Q a superelliptical feel rather than a true circle. Strokes are even and steady, terminals are mostly straight-cut, and joins stay crisp, producing a tidy rhythm and consistent texture across lines. The uppercase is simple and schematic, while the lowercase keeps similarly compact, squared counters with single-storey forms where expected; numerals follow the same straightforward, engineered logic.
Well-suited for code editors, terminal displays, configuration text, and any setting where alignment matters, such as tables, logs, and data readouts. It also works for UI labels and compact interface typography where a controlled, mechanical rhythm is desirable.
The overall tone reads practical and no-nonsense, with a mildly futuristic edge from the rounded-square geometry. It feels calm and impartial, prioritizing clarity and system-like regularity over expressiveness.
The font appears designed to combine strict monospaced utility with a friendlier, modern geometry by replacing circular forms with rounded-rectangle structures. The goal seems to be dependable alignment and legibility while maintaining a distinctive, system-ready visual identity.
Spacing is intentionally uniform, and the consistent cell-width creates a gridlike cadence in text. The design’s softened corners prevent it from feeling harsh, but the squarish bowls keep it firmly in a technical, constructed register.
