A compact, boxy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistent, even strokes. Curves resolve into superellipse-like corners rather than true circles, giving counters and bowls a squared-off softness. Terminals are mostly flat and abrupt, with minimal modulation, producing a steady, grid-friendly rhythm across caps, lowercase, and figures. The overall color is solid and uniform, with clear geometry and generous interior space in rounded forms.
Well suited to interface text, navigation, tool panels, and system-style labeling where a strict, repeatable rhythm is beneficial. It also works effectively for data-dense contexts like tables and readouts, and for branding moments that want a technical, retro-instrument character without becoming decorative.
The tone is practical and machine-oriented, evoking signage, terminals, and hardware labeling. Its softened corners keep the voice approachable, while the squared curves maintain an engineered, no-nonsense feel. The result reads as confidently functional with a subtle retro-tech flavor.
The design appears aimed at a highly structured, screen-native look built from rounded rectangles, prioritizing consistency and a controlled rhythm across the character set. It balances hard geometry with softened corners to stay legible and friendly while retaining a distinctly engineered silhouette.
Distinctive letterforms include a geometric, squared ‘O’/‘0’-style roundness, a single-storey ‘a’, and compact joins that keep shapes tidy at display sizes. Figures are bold and highly structured, matching the same rounded-rect logic as the letters for a cohesive texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
