A geometric display face built from heavy, monoline strokes with rounded terminals and frequent use of solid counters. Many bowls and apertures are collapsed into filled circles or pill-shaped masses, producing a strong positive-shape silhouette and a compact internal rhythm. Curves are smooth and near-circular, while straight strokes are clean and uniform, with occasional cut-ins and notches that create a modular, stencil-like construction. Letter widths vary noticeably, and the overall spacing reads dense due to the filled interiors and broad stroke presence.
Best suited to large-size applications where shape recognition carries the message: posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging, and bold branding moments. It can also work for short bursts of text in editorial or digital graphics when a playful, graphic display voice is desired, but it is likely to feel heavy and dense for long reading.
The tone is playful and synthetic, mixing mid-century sci‑fi/space-age cues with a contemporary, icon-like boldness. Its solid counters and simple geometry give it a punchy, poster-ready personality that feels more graphic than typographic, leaning toward whimsical and experimental rather than formal.
The design appears intended to explore a solid, counter-collapsing construction that turns letter interiors into bold graphic forms. By combining uniform stroke weight, rounded geometry, and modular cut-ins, it prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a futuristic-retro flavor for attention-grabbing display use.
The filled-counter treatment is especially prominent in round letters, where the interior becomes a dominant black mass, creating high visual impact but also reducing internal detail. Numerals and capitals share the same modular logic, giving headings a consistent, blocky cadence.
