A squared slab serif with a modular, rectilinear construction and softly rounded outer corners. Strokes are consistently thick with crisp, flat terminals and short, block-like serifs that read as integrated extensions of the stems. Counters tend to be rectangular or squarish, giving letters like O, C, and G a boxed, machined feel. Curves are minimized and resolved into straight segments with gentle corner radii, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) remain sharp and geometric. The lowercase follows the same squared logic with compact bowls and a single-storey “a,” and the numerals are similarly boxy with open, angular interior shapes.
This font suits display settings where a crisp, technical voice is desired—headlines, labels, signage, UI mockups, and industrial or sci‑fi themed branding. It can also work for short blocks of text when a structured, retro-mechanical texture is part of the concept, though its strong geometry will remain a prominent stylistic feature.
The overall tone feels engineered and purposeful, with a retro-computing or instrument-panel flavor. Its squared geometry and slab accents convey sturdiness and a no-nonsense, technical character rather than warmth or calligraphy.
The design appears intended to blend slab-serif sturdiness with a square, grid-based skeleton, producing a contemporary-industrial look reminiscent of digital displays and engineered lettering. The consistent stroke logic and boxed counters suggest an aim for clear, robust forms that hold their shape in bold, high-contrast applications.
Spacing and sidebearings appear steady and functional, producing an even, grid-friendly texture in the sample paragraph. The design’s rounded-square corners help soften the otherwise rigid geometry, improving visual continuity across curves and angles.
