A squared, mostly monoline sans with rounded-rectangle counters and softened corners, built from straight strokes and gently curved outer arcs. Many terminals are subtly chamfered or tapered, giving the outlines a slightly hand-cut, stenciled feel without true breaks. The capitals are compact and geometric (notably the squarish C/G/O/Q), while lowercase forms mix boxy bowls with occasional asymmetric details (like the single-storey a and the looped g). Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with open, angular joins and consistent stroke rhythm.
Best suited for short to medium-length display settings where its geometric quirks can be read as personality—headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and entertainment or tech-adjacent branding. It can work for pull quotes and UI-like labels at larger sizes, but the tight apertures and boxy counters suggest avoiding very small text.
The overall tone feels playful and offbeat, combining a retro digital flavor with a slightly improvised, quirky edge. Its softened geometry keeps it friendly, while the sharp tapers and odd little inflections add character and a mild sense of experimentation.
The font appears designed to deliver a distinctive, characterful geometric voice—structured enough to feel systematic, but with intentional irregularities (tapers, chamfers, and occasional asymmetry) to keep it lively and memorable.
The design leans on rectangular counters and tight apertures, which creates a strong grid-like rhythm in words. The distinctive Q tail and the chamfered, slightly flared stroke endings contribute to a recognizable texture that stays consistent across letters and figures.
