A geometric sans with a squared, rounded-rectangle construction and consistent monoline strokes. Curves are largely replaced by softened corners and superellipse-like bowls, producing boxy counters and a modular rhythm. Terminals are predominantly flat with rounded edges, and many joins favor angular geometry (notably in diagonals) while maintaining an overall smooth, engineered feel. Proportions are compact and steady, with open apertures kept relatively narrow and counters tending toward rectangular shapes; digits and capitals follow the same squared system for a cohesive set.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where clarity and a technical aesthetic are desired—interface labels, wayfinding, product markings, and display typography. It also performs well for branding in tech or gaming contexts, as well as for numbering systems and compact callouts where the squared forms remain legible at moderate sizes.
The design reads as technological and purpose-built, evoking control panels, sci‑fi interfaces, and retro digital labeling. Its squared curves and uniform stroke give it a clean, mechanical tone that feels modern yet reminiscent of early computer or arcade-era typography.
The font appears designed to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, readable alphabet: a controlled, modular look with softened corners for friendliness, aimed at contemporary digital or industrial applications while maintaining a distinctive retro-tech flavor.
Distinctive ID-oriented shapes appear throughout, including highly squared bowls (e.g., the zero-like forms) and a single-storey lowercase "a" with a strong rectangular counter. Descenders on letters like "j" and "y" add variation without breaking the rigid geometry, and the numerals echo the same rounded-rectilinear logic for consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
