A compact, heavy sans with a squared, rounded-corner construction that leans on superellipse-like bowls and rounded rectangles. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing solid counters and a sturdy texture. Terminals are mostly blunt and horizontal/vertical, with occasional notches and inset counters that add a machined feel. Curves are simplified into boxy arcs, and the overall spacing reads tight and controlled for a dense, punchy set of forms.
Best suited to display contexts where impact and a techno-industrial voice are desired, such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and game or app UI titling. It can also work for short labels and packaging callouts where a compact, high-density texture is an advantage.
The tone is distinctly techno and game-adjacent, evoking digital signage, arcade UI, and industrial labeling. Its rigid geometry and clipped details feel engineered and utilitarian rather than friendly or editorial.
The likely intention is to deliver a bold, space-efficient geometric sans with a futuristic, engineered personality. By using rounded-rectangle construction and occasional inset details, it aims to stay highly legible while projecting a distinctive digital/industrial aesthetic.
The design favors rectilinear structure over traditional calligraphic movement, giving letters a modular rhythm across the line. The sample text shows strong presence at display sizes, where the internal cut-ins and squared curves become part of the font’s character.
