A geometric sans built from squared-off, rounded-rectangle forms with large radii and flattened curves. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with a pronounced extended stance and generous horizontal proportions. Corners are consistently softened, while joins and terminals often end in straight cuts that reinforce a mechanical, modular feel. Counters tend to be compact and boxy, and several letters incorporate distinctive cut-ins and notches (notably in forms like S, G, and some diagonals), creating a crisp, engineered rhythm across text. Numerals follow the same superelliptical logic, with squared bowls and wide footprints.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, poster typography, branding marks, packaging, and on-screen UI treatments where a bold, technical voice is desired. It can also work for short captions or labels in interface contexts, especially when paired with ample spacing and clean layouts.
The overall tone is modern and high-energy, leaning toward sci‑fi interfaces, motorsport graphics, and performance branding. Its squared curves and firm, wide presence read as confident and technical rather than friendly or literary, giving headlines a punchy, forward-looking character.
The design appears intended to translate the geometry of rounded rectangles into a readable alphabet, delivering a contemporary, machine-made aesthetic with strong impact. Its extended proportions and consistent soft corners suggest a focus on branding and display applications where a cohesive, futuristic system look is more important than traditional text nuance.
In longer lines the dense black shapes and tight internal counters create a strong, compact texture, while the wide set keeps word shapes open and emphatic. The design’s repeated rounded-rectangle motif provides a cohesive system feel, making it particularly effective when used consistently across a visual identity.
