A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle forms with consistent stroke weight and squared terminals softened by generous corner radii. Curves resolve into superelliptical bowls and counters, giving letters like O, D, and Q a compact, boxy roundness rather than true circles. The design is horizontally expansive, with broad caps, wide bowls, and open apertures; joins are clean and mechanical, and spacing reads even and deliberate in text. Numerals follow the same modular logic, with squared-off shapes and clear, simplified construction.
This font is best suited to display settings where its geometric construction can be appreciated: headlines, logos, packaging, posters, and tech-forward branding. It also fits interface titling, dashboards, and game or sci-fi themed graphics where a clean, modular voice is desirable.
The overall tone is modern and engineered, combining a digital, UI-like precision with a subtle retro-tech feel. Its rounded corners keep it approachable while the squared geometry maintains a disciplined, machine-made character.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a readable sans, emphasizing repeatable modules, consistent stroke behavior, and a contemporary techno aesthetic while remaining clear in short text.
Distinctive details include the superelliptical ‘O’ family, a squared ‘G’ with an internal bar, and compact, architectural lowercase forms that echo the caps. The sample text shows sturdy word shapes at display sizes, with a consistent rhythm driven by repeated rounded-rectangle motifs.
