A heavy, geometric sans with squared proportions and generously rounded corners that soften the overall blocky construction. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and many forms rely on cut-in notches and open apertures that create a semi-stencil feel (notably in curves and bowls). Curved letters like C, G, O, and S are built from broad arcs with flattened terminals, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are clean and sharply joined. Numerals follow the same system, with segmented, squared curves and large interior spaces for clarity at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where its bold geometry and notched detailing can be appreciated: headlines, branding marks, posters, and product/tech packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or interface titling where a futuristic, engineered voice is desired, but it is less geared toward long-form reading.
The tone reads modern and engineered—suggesting interfaces, machinery, and sci‑fi or gaming aesthetics. Its confident weight and clipped details give it an assertive, performance-minded energy rather than a neutral text voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, constructed sans that balances brute strength with controlled rounding, using systematic cut-ins and open counters to create a distinctive, high-tech silhouette. It prioritizes impact and recognizability in large sizes while maintaining consistent, modular letter construction.
Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally broad and stable, with strong horizontal emphasis and a compact internal detailing that becomes more apparent in the sample text. The distinctive notch and aperture treatment helps differentiate similar shapes while reinforcing a cohesive, constructed system.
