A heavy, squared sans with rounded corners and a highly regular, cell-like rhythm. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry rather than calligraphic arcs, producing blunt terminals, broad shoulders, and compact counters. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with simplified joins and a generally rectangular footprint across both upper- and lowercase. Numerals and punctuation follow the same chunky, engineered construction, giving the set a consistent, grid-friendly silhouette.
Works well where consistency and strong letterforms matter: UI headers, dashboards, wayfinding, product labels, and bold packaging typography. The steady, modular rhythm also suits short paragraphs, captions, and technical documentation where an engineered, systematic look is desired.
The overall tone is pragmatic and no-nonsense, with a distinctly engineered feel. Its rounded-square construction adds a friendly softness to an otherwise industrial voice, evoking labeling, instruments, and retro digital-era typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, highly regular sans built from rounded-square primitives—prioritizing uniformity, punchy presence, and a clean, tool-like personality across letters and figures.
The uppercase appears especially block-dominant and space-filling, while the lowercase keeps the same modular logic for a cohesive texture in paragraphs. Round letters like O/Q/C read as squarish ovals, and diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) stay thick and stable rather than sharp.
