A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse forms with large corner radii and broad, even strokes. Many joins and terminals are cut with angular chamfers or pointed notches, creating a distinct “carved” rhythm within otherwise smooth contours. Counters are compact and often squared-off, with horizontal cut-ins and gaps that read almost stencil-like in letters such as E, S, and the numerals. Overall spacing and proportions feel expansive and display-oriented, with a strong, monolithic silhouette and minimal modulation.
Best suited for display work where its chunky geometry and cut-in details can be appreciated: logos and wordmarks, posters, packaging, entertainment titles, and tech or gaming UI headings. It performs especially well when you want a bold, synthetic voice and clear geometric shapes at medium-to-large sizes.
The letterforms project a futuristic, game-interface energy—part spacecraft panel, part arcade cabinet. The softened geometry keeps it approachable, while the sharp notches and cut terminals add a mechanical, engineered attitude. The result feels bold, synthetic, and attention-grabbing rather than editorial or traditional.
The design appears intended to merge rounded, superelliptical construction with aggressive chamfered detailing, producing a sci‑fi/tech display sans that remains cohesive and highly recognizable. Its decorative cut-ins and compact counters suggest a focus on distinctive branding and titling rather than long-form readability.
Distinctive triangular nicks and wedge terminals recur across caps, lowercase, and figures, acting like a signature motif. The sample text shows consistent texture at larger sizes, where the internal cutouts and tight counters become a key part of the visual identity.
