A heavy, monolinear sans with squared proportions and generously rounded corners throughout. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing compact bowls and softly chamfered terminals rather than sharp joins. Counters are generally rectangular or pill-shaped and fairly open, while strokes stay consistent with minimal contrast. The overall rhythm is slightly uneven in width from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a lively, hand-fitted feel despite the geometric construction.
Best suited to headlines, logos, packaging, and short UI labels where its chunky rounded geometry can read clearly and add personality. It also works well for signage and poster typography, especially in retro, arcade, or light industrial themes. For extended reading, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where the distinctive squarish counters and tight curves have room to breathe.
The tone reads retro and playful, with a sturdy, engineered presence. Its rounded block forms feel friendly and approachable, while the squared construction adds a mildly industrial, sci‑fi edge. The result is attention-grabbing and characterful without becoming decorative to the point of illegibility.
The design appears intended to merge geometric, rounded-rectangle construction with a bold, friendly voice—delivering a compact, display-oriented texture that feels both nostalgic and modern. Its consistent stroke weight and softened corners suggest an emphasis on strong silhouettes, quick recognition, and a cohesive, modular system across letters and numerals.
Uppercase forms lean compact and sign-like, with squarish round letters (O, Q) and simplified diagonals (K, X, Z) that emphasize a constructed look. The lowercase mirrors the same boxy logic, with single-storey shapes and rectangular counters that keep texture consistent in longer text. Numerals are similarly squared and robust, suited to display settings where clarity at a distance matters more than subtle typographic nuance.
