A decorative serif with monolinear strokes, squared-off curves, and consistently rounded outer corners. The construction favors boxy bowls and rectangular counters, with frequent notches and small hooked terminals that read like softened, bracketed serifs. Many joins show a subtle “cut-in” or ink-trap-like corner treatment, giving the outlines a machined, modular feel. Proportions are fairly even and compact, with open apertures and simplified curves that keep letterforms crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display copy where its corner detailing and unusual serif construction can be appreciated. It works well for branding, packaging, and signage that want a retro-tech or crafted-mechanical flavor, and can also add personality to UI titles, game artwork, or event graphics when used at generous sizes and spacing.
The overall tone feels retro-futurist and lightly playful—part terminal/arcade, part engineered signage. Its squared geometry and deliberate corner detailing create a quirky, technical personality that can suggest sci‑fi, puzzle/logic themes, or vintage computing without becoming overly aggressive.
The design appears intended to reinterpret serif conventions through a geometric, rounded-rectangle toolkit, emphasizing distinctive terminals and corner cut-ins for a recognizable silhouette. It prioritizes character and thematic voice over neutrality, aiming to deliver a consistent, engineered look across letters and figures.
Uppercase forms lean geometric and schematic (notably the squared C/G/O shapes), while the lowercase introduces more idiosyncratic hooks and asymmetric terminals that add character. Numerals match the same squared, rounded-corner language for a cohesive set and a distinctive, slightly gadget-like rhythm in text.
