A compact, heavy, monospaced sans with uniform stroke weight and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves and corners are consistently softened, giving counters a squarish, superelliptical feel (notably in C, O, and 0) while keeping a tight, efficient footprint. Terminals are blunt and evenly finished; horizontal and vertical strokes maintain a steady rhythm with minimal contrast. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy, with single-storey a and g, short extenders, and prominent dots on i and j.
Well-suited to interfaces and dashboards where fixed-width alignment matters, as well as terminal-inspired graphics, data tables, and schematic captions. The sturdy, rounded geometry also works for packaging, stamps, tags, and short headlines that benefit from a compact, industrial voice.
The overall tone is practical and mechanical, evoking labeling, instrumentation, and workmanlike typography. Its rounded corners keep it friendly, but the dense, uniform shapes read as disciplined and system-oriented rather than expressive or calligraphic.
Likely designed to provide a robust monospaced texture with softened corners, balancing strict grid discipline with approachable rounded forms for clear, repeatable typography in technical and display contexts.
Letterforms appear engineered for consistent texture: spacing and widths lock into an even grid, and the rounded-square bowls help maintain legibility at small sizes. Numerals follow the same blocky logic, with open, straightforward shapes and minimal ornament.
