A heavy, geometric sans with rounded outer contours and distinctive wedge-like cut-ins that create pointed terminals and occasional stencil-like gaps. Forms are generally wide and compact in their counters, with smooth curves contrasted by sharp triangular notches at joins and stroke endings. The rhythm is driven by large, simplified silhouettes and consistent, blocky spacing; numerals and capitals share the same robust, graphic construction, and the lowercase maintains a high waistline with short ascenders and descenders for a compact text color.
Best suited to logos, headlines, posters, and packaging where the angular cut-ins can read as a signature motif. It also fits entertainment and gaming interfaces, title cards, and short taglines where strong shapes and a compact vertical footprint help maintain impact.
The letterforms project a retro-futurist, arcade-era energy—friendly and bold, but with a mechanical edge from the angular incisions. It reads as playful and stylized rather than neutral, evoking sci‑fi titles, gaming interfaces, and 1970s–1990s display typography.
The design appears intended to merge rounded geometric construction with purposeful angular carving, producing a distinctive display voice that feels both friendly and engineered. It prioritizes instant recognizability and stylistic flavor over text neutrality, using repeated notches and pointed terminals to create a cohesive, branded texture.
Many glyphs use deliberate interior carving (notches in C/S, split-like openings in B, and pointed joints in K/M/N/W) that adds texture at large sizes but can reduce clarity in long passages. The overall effect is highly branded and recognizable, with consistent use of curved bowls paired with sharp, triangular interruptions.
