A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction and crisp, squared corners softened by small radii. Counters tend toward rectangular cutouts, and joins are abrupt, giving the letterforms a modular, engineered feel. Curves are largely translated into superellipse-like corners rather than true bowls, producing compact apertures and a tight internal rhythm. Lowercase follows the same geometric logic, with simplified forms and short, squared terminals that keep the silhouette dense and uniform in texture.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and punchy titles where its geometric character can read clearly. It also fits interface-style graphics—game HUDs, sci‑fi UI mockups, labels, and signage—especially when set large with generous spacing. For longer passages, it will perform more reliably in short bursts (subheads, callouts) than in continuous text.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, with a distinctly techno and arcade-like flavor. Its rigid geometry and chunky silhouettes feel utilitarian and purposeful, suggesting control panels, sci‑fi interfaces, and bold display messaging. The rounded corners keep it from feeling sharp or aggressive, adding a friendly, toy-like edge to the industrial structure.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a consistent alphabet with strong, compact silhouettes. It prioritizes a cohesive modular system and visual impact over open readability, aiming for a contemporary tech/display voice that remains approachable through softened corners.
At text sizes the dense counters and narrow openings can darken the page color, while at larger sizes the distinctive notches and squared interior shapes become a key stylistic feature. Numerals match the same blocky system, reading like segmented, cut-from-solid forms that pair well with all-caps settings and short, punchy headlines.
