A geometric sans with squarish, superellipse-like bowls and generously rounded corners throughout. Strokes are heavy and even, with cut-in notches, wedges, and occasional internal bars that create a modular, almost stencil-like construction. Curves tend to flatten into straight segments, terminals often end in crisp diagonals, and several letters feature distinctive interior counters or insets (notably in round forms), producing a deliberate, engineered rhythm. Spacing appears open for such heavy shapes, supporting large, display-led setting.
This font is best suited to logotypes, posters, headlines, and branding where its distinctive cut-ins and rounded-rect geometry can read clearly at larger sizes. It can also work well on packaging and tech-themed graphics, especially when you want a bold, engineered look that stands apart from neutral grotesks.
The overall tone is futuristic and tech-forward, with a playful edge coming from the carved details and quirky internal shapes. It evokes sci-fi interfaces, arcade-era graphics, and industrial labeling where character is as important as legibility.
The design appears intended to merge rounded-rect geometry with purposeful incisions and internal detailing, creating a display sans that feels both friendly and mechanical. The consistent corner radii and recurring notch motifs suggest a system-driven approach aimed at strong recognition in branding and title work.
Round letters are treated more like rounded rectangles than circles, and diagonals are emphasized in forms like A, V, W, X, Y, and Z. Numerals follow the same system, mixing soft corners with sharp cuts, giving the set a cohesive, constructed feel.
