A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like forms, with blunt terminals and consistently softened corners. Strokes are even and sturdy, with wide proportions and open counters that keep the texture readable in a single, steady rhythm. Curves tend to resolve into squared shoulders rather than fully circular bowls, giving letters a compact, engineered feel; diagonals are crisp and controlled, and joins stay smooth without visible contrast or calligraphic modulation.
Well suited for UI labels, system-style interfaces, and data-heavy layouts where consistent alignment and a steady rhythm are important. It also fits coding/terminal aesthetics, technical documentation, instrumentation, packaging, and signage where a robust, no-nonsense voice is desired.
The overall tone feels technical and pragmatic, evoking industrial labeling, terminals, and interface typography. Its rounded corners soften the geometry, balancing a machine-made, modular look with a friendly restraint rather than warmth or expressiveness.
The design appears intended to translate a modular, rounded-rect geometry into a highly consistent text tool, prioritizing uniformity, clarity, and an engineered look. Its shapes suggest a deliberate nod to techno and retro system typography while remaining straightforward for everyday on-screen and labeling contexts.
Figures and capitals share the same squared-curve language, producing a highly uniform color across lines. The punctuation and spacing shown in the sample maintain a disciplined, grid-like cadence that reinforces the font’s functional character.
