A heavy, rounded-rectangular sans with boxy silhouettes and consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and even, producing dense, high-impact letterforms with compact apertures and squared counters (notably in forms like O, D, and P). Several glyphs show purposeful cut-ins and notches that create a slightly stencil-like rhythm, while terminals stay blunt and controlled. The overall geometry leans on squarish bowls and superellipse-like curves, giving the alphabet a uniform, modular feel across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for headlines and short blocks of display text where its dense forms and strong geometry can read as intentional. It works well for posters, branding marks, packaging, and signage—especially in contexts that benefit from a retro-tech or industrial tone. For long-form copy, it will generally perform better at larger sizes with generous spacing to offset the compact apertures.
The font projects a bold, retro-industrial voice with a contemporary tech edge. Its chunky construction and engineered notches feel assertive and utilitarian, while the rounded corners keep it approachable and slightly playful. The result reads like signage or product lettering designed to look tough, modern, and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through simplified, rounded-rectangular construction and consistent stroke weight. The added notches and clipped interior shapes suggest a goal of making a functional, engineered display face that feels modern yet nostalgic, with strong presence in branding and titling.
In text, the tight apertures and dense interiors make the black shapes dominate, especially at smaller sizes. Distinctive details—like the angular join in V/W, the compact, squared counter shapes, and the clipped corners—add character and help create a consistent “machined” texture across lines. The numerals match the caps in weight and geometry, supporting a cohesive headline system.
