A monoline sans built from straight strokes and rounded-rectangle curves, giving counters and bowls a superelliptical, softly squared feel. The construction is clean and schematic, with long verticals, small apertures, and compact round forms that read like thin tubes bent into right angles. Uppercase proportions are tall and condensed, while lowercase is even more reduced, with short bodies and relatively prominent ascenders/descenders; widths vary noticeably between glyphs. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with simplified forms and open shapes where possible.
Best suited to display and short-to-medium text where a sleek, sci‑fi geometry is desirable—such as UI labels, dashboards, wayfinding systems, packaging, and technology-oriented branding. The slender stroke and tight forms favor larger sizes, where the rounded-rect details and condensed rhythm remain clear.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical, like interface lettering or labeling on instruments. Its extreme cleanliness and narrow rhythm create a cool, controlled mood, leaning more utilitarian than expressive.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rect module into a complete alphabet, prioritizing consistency of radius, straightness, and minimal stroke variation. It aims for a contemporary, engineered look that evokes digital interfaces and industrial labeling while keeping forms simple and repeatable.
Distinctive squared-round terminals and corner radii keep the set visually consistent across curves and joins. Several letters emphasize vertical structure (notably in H, N, M, and U), while curves tend to resolve into flattened, rounded corners rather than true circles, reinforcing the engineered, modular personality.
