A heavy, rounded-rectangular sans with a strong superellipse construction and broadly uniform stroke thickness. Corners are generously radiused, giving the squared geometry a softened, molded feel. Counters and apertures tend to be small and rectangular, with many glyphs built from blocky segments and horizontal cuts (notably in E/S/Z-like forms), creating a distinctly modular rhythm. Lowercase follows the same squared logic with a tall x-height and minimal differentiation between curves and straights, while figures are similarly boxy and tightly enclosed.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, titles, branding marks, and display copy where its geometric modularity can be a feature. It also fits tech-leaning graphics, game or app UI labels, and packaging where a futuristic, blocky voice is desired; for extended reading, larger sizes and generous spacing help preserve clarity.
The overall tone is bold and synthetic, evoking arcade interfaces, sci‑fi labeling, and chunky digital display aesthetics. Its softened corners keep the mood friendly and approachable despite the dense, high-impact shapes.
The font appears designed to translate a rounded-rectangle grid language into a cohesive alphabet, prioritizing bold presence, compact internal spaces, and a consistent techno rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The design relies on straight segments and rounded corners rather than true circular bowls, which makes text look patterned and grid-driven. In longer lines the tight counters and strong horizontals can read as intentionally mechanical, favoring stylized impact over conventional neutrality.
