A low-contrast slab serif with monoline-like strokes, broad proportions, and generous horizontal spacing. Terminals are predominantly squared and flat, while many curves resolve into rounded-rectangle shapes, producing soft corners rather than sharp bowls. Serifs read as short, sturdy slabs on key stems, giving the design a grounded, engineered rhythm. The overall construction favors wide bowls, open apertures, and simple, geometric joins that keep letterforms crisp and legible at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short text where its wide stance and squared geometry can set a strong typographic voice. It works well for signage, posters, packaging, and brand marks that need an engineered or retro-instrument feel, and it can also serve in UI labels or technical diagrams when a distinctive slab-serif look is desired.
The font conveys a technical, retro-industrial tone—confident and orderly, with a hint of mid-century machinery and instrument labeling. Its squared forms and restrained detailing feel pragmatic and systematic, while the rounded corners keep it approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended to blend a sturdy slab-serif foundation with squared, rounded-rectangle curves for a controlled, technical aesthetic. Its wide proportions and simplified detailing suggest a focus on clarity and visual uniformity in display-oriented settings.
Figures echo the same squared, rounded-rectangle logic, with straight runs and clean right-angle turns that align well with the slab-serif skeleton. The design maintains a consistent cadence across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, emphasizing horizontal breadth and a stable baseline presence.
