A clean, monoline sans with softly rounded terminals and generous internal whitespace. Many strokes break slightly at joins and corners, creating small gaps that lighten the texture and add a distinctive, engineered rhythm. Curves are smooth and circular, while verticals stay straight and even, giving the alphabet a tidy structure despite the unconventional interruptions. Uppercase forms are simple and open (notably the C/G/O/Q family), and lowercase maintains clear, single-storey constructions with a lightly stylized, geometric feel.
Best suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, posters, and other display applications where its broken-stroke detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short UI labels or captions when set large enough to preserve the intentional gaps and maintain clarity.
The repeated breaks and rounded geometry lend the font a playful, slightly retro-futurist personality—friendly rather than formal. It reads as inventive and decorative without becoming chaotic, suggesting a lighthearted, techy whimsy that stands out in short phrases.
The font appears designed to modernize a simple geometric sans by introducing deliberate interruptions at joins, creating a recognizable signature and a lighter visual cadence. The intent feels oriented toward distinctiveness and charm—an approachable display voice with a subtle sci‑fi/retro edge.
The design’s signature is the consistent use of small separations in strokes (seen in several capitals and in numerals), which can create sparkle at display sizes but may reduce solidity at very small text. Numerals follow the same soft, open construction, keeping a cohesive tone across letters and figures.
