A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are monoline and tightly controlled, with squared counters softened by generous corner radii that create a superelliptic, almost “rounded pixel” feel. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, apertures are narrow, and interior shapes lean toward squarish bowls and notches rather than open curves. The lowercase is compact with sturdy stems and simplified joins, while figures and capitals keep a consistent boxy rhythm that reads cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, branding marks, and poster-style settings where its chunky geometry can be appreciated. It also fits tech-themed graphics, game or app UI labels, packaging callouts, and short, high-impact phrases. For longer passages, it will typically perform better with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is bold and mechanical with a retro-digital edge. Its softened corners keep it friendly and approachable, balancing the industrial geometry with a playful, game-like energy. The result feels modern-tech and arcade-adjacent rather than corporate or literary.
The likely intent is a robust, display-oriented sans that translates rounded-rectangle geometry into an attention-grabbing voice. It aims to deliver strong presence and consistent modular forms, evoking retro-tech and industrial signage while staying approachable through softened corners.
The design emphasizes rectangular counters and clear orthogonal structure, giving text a strong, modular texture in lines of copy. In the sample, the dense color and narrow openings create a solid typographic “wall,” making spacing and size choices especially important for comfortable reading.
