A heavy, geometric sans built from squared-off strokes with generously rounded corners and mostly uniform thickness. Curves resolve into superellipse-like rectangles, producing boxy bowls and counters in letters like O, D, and P. Terminals are clean and blunt, with occasional diagonal cuts and angled joins (notably in K, R, V, W, X) that add sharpness to an otherwise softened silhouette. The overall rhythm is wide and stable, with compact internal apertures and clear, modular construction that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, branding marks, posters, game titles, and interface or HUD-style graphics. It can also work for packaging, product labeling, and signage where a sturdy, technical voice is desired; for longer text, its dense counters and strong color are most comfortable at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The tone is boldly futuristic and machine-made, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, arcade hardware, and industrial labeling. Its squared geometry reads confident and engineered, while the rounded corners keep it approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary techno aesthetic through rounded-rectangular construction and consistent stroke weight, prioritizing immediacy and visual authority over delicate typographic nuance.
Distinctive details include the angular, chevron-like V/W, a blocky S with stepped horizontals, and a squared, rounded-rectangle zero. The lowercase maintains the same modular logic as the uppercase, producing a cohesive, display-forward texture with strong presence at large sizes.
