A geometric sans built from squared, rounded-rectangle forms with consistently softened corners and flat stroke terminals. Curves tend toward superellipse bowls (notably in C, O, Q, and 0), while diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Y are crisp and sturdy. Counters are mostly rectangular with rounded corners, and spacing feels deliberate and slightly compact, producing an even, blocky rhythm. The lowercase is straightforward and sturdy, with single-story a and g, a short-armed t, and a square dot on i and j; figures follow the same rounded-rect geometry for strong visual continuity.
This font suits display use where a technical, contemporary voice is desired—headlines, brand marks, product naming, packaging, and promotional graphics. It also fits UI-style titling, signage, and sports/tech collateral where sturdy letterforms and clear, high-impact shapes are an advantage.
The overall tone is modern and functional, with a distinctly engineered, device-interface feel. Its squared curves and firm construction read as confident and practical, leaning toward sci‑fi, sports, and industrial design cues rather than friendly or calligraphic expression.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangle, industrial geometry into a readable sans for bold, modern messaging. It prioritizes consistent modular shapes and strong silhouettes that remain cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The design emphasizes uniformity and silhouette clarity, with prominent corner rounding that keeps the forms approachable while retaining a rigid, technical skeleton. The Q’s tail is minimal and integrated, and the numerals are especially screen-friendly in their modular, box-like construction.
