A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms with uniform stroke weight and a distinctly wide footprint. Curves resolve into squared bowls and softly filleted corners, producing crisp, modular counters and a tightly controlled rhythm. Many characters use compact, nearly rectangular interior spaces and relatively closed apertures, while diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y/K) are sharp and stable, reinforcing a machined, constructed feel. Numerals and capitals read as blocky and streamlined, with consistent corner radii tying the set together.
Best suited to display roles where its wide, geometric personality can be featured—headlines, brand marks, packaging, and event or poster graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or interface-style callouts when a tech-forward, modular look is desired, but its dense forms and wide set suggest avoiding long text blocks at small sizes.
The overall tone is futuristic and technical, with a retro-digital edge that evokes instrumentation, arcade interfaces, and sci‑fi titling. Its broad proportions and squared curves project strength and precision rather than warmth or delicacy.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a superelliptic, rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive alphabet for contemporary tech and sci‑fi aesthetics. The consistent stroke and corner system prioritize visual uniformity and a constructed, hardware-like presence.
The design favors horizontal emphasis and compact inner shapes, creating dense word silhouettes in running text. Rounded corners temper the hard geometry, helping the face feel engineered without becoming harsh.
