A compact, squarish sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are consistently thick and even, with blunt terminals and smoothly radiused corners that keep curves feeling controlled rather than soft. Counters tend toward rectangular or superelliptical shapes, and many joins resolve into clean, right-angled structures with rounding at the extremes. Overall proportions are slightly condensed with tight interior space, producing a dense, modular rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
This font suits interface titling and compact UI labels where a sturdy, modular look helps characters hold up at small to medium sizes. It also works well for signage, wayfinding-style graphics, and poster headlines that benefit from a clean, engineered tone. In branding, it can support tech, automotive, tools, and industrial-adjacent packaging or logotypes.
The design reads as technical and utilitarian, with a futuristic, device-like flavor. Its rounded-square construction evokes industrial labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and engineered systems—confident and functional more than friendly or expressive.
The letterforms appear designed to translate rounded-rectangle construction into a readable text and display system, prioritizing consistency, durability, and a contemporary technical voice. The tight, squared counters and controlled curvature suggest an aim for a distinctive ‘hardware’ or ‘screen’ aesthetic while maintaining straightforward legibility.
The lowercase includes a single-storey “a,” and several forms emphasize squared bowls and boxy apertures, reinforcing a manufactured, grid-based feel. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic for consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
