A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) forms with softly squared curves and consistent monoline strokes. Counters are mostly rectangular with generous rounding, and terminals tend to be flat, producing a crisp, machined silhouette. The proportions emphasize width and sturdy horizontals, while joins and corners stay smooth and controlled, giving the alphabet a modular, engineered rhythm. Lowercase follows the same constructed logic with simplified, open shapes and compact, rectangular bowls.
Best suited to display sizes where its wide footprint and geometric detailing can read clearly—headlines, branding marks, product titling, and posters. It also fits interface-style labeling, dashboards, and wayfinding where a technical, systemlike voice is desired, while longer paragraphs may feel dense due to its broad set and heavy visual mass.
The overall tone feels technical and utilitarian, with a distinctly retro digital flavor—like control panels, sci‑fi interfaces, or arcade-era labeling. Its wide stance and squared-round geometry convey confidence and systematized order rather than warmth or calligraphy.
The font appears designed to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a coherent alphabet with a functional, techno-industrial voice. By prioritizing consistent stroke weight and repeatable modular shapes, it aims for strong impact, easy recognition, and a contemporary sci‑fi/retro-digital aesthetic.
The design leans on repeated structural motifs—rounded-rect counters, squared shoulders, and flat ends—which creates strong internal consistency across letters and numerals. The numerals match the same modular geometry, and the punctuation shown (notably the dot/colon) appears as clean, circular marks that contrast the squarer letterforms.
