A compact geometric sans built from squared-off, rounded-corner forms with a consistent, heavy stroke presence. Curves are largely superellipse-like, producing near-rectangular bowls and counters (notably in O, D, and 0) with softened corners. Terminals are clean and blunt; joins stay crisp, and diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are straight and robust. Proportions lean slightly condensed with uniform cap height and a steady baseline, while counters remain open enough to keep letters clear at display sizes.
This font performs best when clarity and impact are needed: headlines, short statements, and brand marks that benefit from a technical, geometric voice. Its squared-round construction also suits UI titling, labels, and signage where a contemporary, structured aesthetic is desirable.
The overall tone feels engineered and modern—confident, technical, and slightly futuristic. The rounded-rectangle construction adds a friendly softness to an otherwise utilitarian, machine-like rhythm, suggesting contemporary interfaces, equipment markings, and performance branding.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical sans for bold, modern communication—balancing a rigid, industrial skeleton with softened corners for approachability and consistency across the character set.
Distinctive features include boxy, rounded bowls, squared curves in C/S, and a single-storey a with a squared aperture. Numerals share the same rounded-rect geometry, creating a cohesive, systemized look across letters and figures.
