A heavy, squared sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with soft corners and largely monoline construction. Counters are tight and often rectangular, and many joins terminate in flat, horizontal cuts that create small notches and a subtly segmented feel. The overall rhythm is wide and blocky with sturdy verticals, rounded shoulders, and a consistent, engineered geometry across letters and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its bold mass and geometric quirks can be appreciated—headlines, branding, product marks, apparel graphics, posters, and tech or gaming-themed layouts. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation in larger sizes where the tight counters remain open enough for quick reading.
The tone reads contemporary and machine-made, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and sporty branding. Its rounded-square shapes feel friendly but assertive, balancing a sleek tech vibe with a rugged, utilitarian presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, modern squared-round voice: sturdy, compact, and engineered, with small cut details that differentiate it from a purely smooth geometric sans. It prioritizes impact and stylistic cohesion over neutral, long-form readability.
Several glyphs emphasize a modular construction through small breaks or step-like terminals (notably in curved letters and the numerals), which adds character but can reduce clarity at small sizes. The lowercase is highly stylized and matches the uppercase’s squared curves, keeping the texture uniform in headlines and short phrases.
