A heavy, monoline sans built from squared forms with generously rounded corners, giving counters and bowls a superellipse/rounded-rectangle feel. Strokes keep a consistent thickness with crisp terminals and minimal contrast, producing a steady, mechanical rhythm. Curves tend to flatten into straight segments (notably in C, G, O, S and the numerals), while joins are clean and sturdy; diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are simplified and blocky. The lowercase follows the same modular logic, with single-storey a and g and a squared, closed-in construction that maintains even color across text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display text where a clear, blocky silhouette and consistent rhythm are desirable—such as UI/UX labeling, dashboards, packaging callouts, wayfinding, and bold branding. It can also work for retro-tech themed posters and titles where its rounded-rect geometry becomes a defining visual motif.
The tone is pragmatic and contemporary with a nostalgic, digital-utility flavor—friendly because of the rounded corners, but still firm and engineered. Its rigid geometry and consistent spacing evoke interface labels, signage systems, and retro-tech aesthetics more than editorial warmth.
The design appears aimed at delivering a robust, highly structured sans that stays legible and cohesive within a strict geometric system. By using rounded-rectangle curves and uniform stroke logic, it prioritizes consistency, clarity, and a distinctive tech-adjacent character.
Round glyphs read as squarish ovals, which strengthens the grid-like personality and creates a distinctive texture in longer text. The numerals share the same softened-rectangle construction, supporting a cohesive look for codes and data-oriented settings.
