A geometric sans built from squared, rounded-rectangle forms with blunt terminals and consistently softened corners. Strokes are heavy and even, producing a solid, modular texture and a very stable baseline rhythm. Curves resolve into boxy bowls (notably in C, G, O, Q, and the lowercase rounds), while diagonals appear clean and mechanical in A, K, V, W, X, and Y. Counters are compact and rectangular, with generous apertures kept under tight control, and the numerals follow the same squared, superelliptic logic for a highly uniform set.
Well-suited to interface typography, dashboards, and on-screen labels where a strong, modular presence is desirable. It can also work effectively for headlines, logotypes, and packaging that aims for a futuristic or industrial voice, and for signage where bold, simplified letterforms help maintain recognition at a glance.
The overall tone is technical and no-nonsense, with a retro-digital flavor reminiscent of terminals, instrumentation, and arcade-era UI. Its sturdy, block-like construction reads confident and functional, prioritizing clarity and consistency over warmth or calligraphic personality.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, system-like aesthetic with consistent geometry and predictable spacing, echoing the look of rounded-square industrial lettering. Its simplified shapes and controlled counters suggest an emphasis on durability, legibility, and a cohesive techno visual identity.
The lowercase includes single-storey forms (e.g., a) and boxy, open shapes that keep interior space legible despite the heavy weight. Punctuation and dots render as crisp squares, reinforcing the pixel-adjacent, engineered feel, and the rounded corners prevent the texture from becoming overly harsh at display sizes.
