A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms with flat terminals and heavily softened corners. Curves are squared-off and boxy, producing counters that read like softened rectangles (notably in O/Q and the bowls of B/P/R). Strokes are uniform and dense, with compact apertures and short joins that create a tight, engineered rhythm. Several glyphs show small, intentional-looking cut-ins or notches (e.g., around S, a, g, and some numerals), adding a slightly segmented, constructed feel without becoming decorative. The overall silhouette is broad-shouldered and stable, with straightforward, legible numerals and an eight-shaped form that stays rectilinear rather than fully round.
Best suited to headlines, branding marks, packaging, and signage where a sturdy, technical voice is desirable. It also works well for UI labels, dashboards, and product/industrial contexts thanks to its compact, squared geometry and clear, high-impact letterforms.
The font conveys a contemporary, machine-made tone: confident, technical, and a bit futuristic. Its squared curves and crisp, modular shapes suggest interfaces, equipment labeling, and performance-oriented branding rather than soft or literary contexts.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, modern sans with a distinctive engineered edge. By keeping strokes uniform and corners consistently softened, it aims for strong recognition and a tech-forward presence across letters and numerals.
The superelliptical construction stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving the typeface a cohesive system-like personality. The notched details introduce extra character at display sizes, while the tight apertures and dense forms can make long passages feel compact and emphatic.
