A compact, modular sans with rounded-rectangle construction and strongly squared curves throughout. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with soft corner rounding that keeps the silhouette smooth while retaining a machined, block-like feel. Counters and apertures are narrow and often squared off, producing dense internal whitespace and a high-ink footprint. The lowercase follows the same geometric logic as the uppercase, with simplified joins and minimal detailing that prioritizes consistent rhythm over calligraphic nuance.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster titles, logos, and packaging where its mass and geometric personality can read clearly. It can also work for display UI, game graphics, and bold labels, while longer passages may feel heavy due to the compact counters and dense texture.
The overall tone feels industrial and techno, with a retro arcade or sci‑fi signage flavor. Its chunky, soft-cornered forms read as tough and utilitarian rather than elegant, lending a playful but authoritative presence in headlines.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive, contemporary display sans, emphasizing solidity, simplified construction, and strong presence. It prioritizes recognizability and graphic punch over delicate interior detailing or text-oriented openness.
The digit set matches the same rounded-rect geometry, with sturdy, slabby shapes that hold together well at large sizes. In text samples, the tight counters and broad letterforms create a loud texture, making spacing and line length feel visually dense.
