A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with heavy, even strokes and generously rounded corners. Bowls and counters read as squarish capsules, creating a modular rhythm with crisp horizontal and vertical emphasis. Curves are minimized in favor of radiused joints, and terminals tend to be flat and squared-off, keeping the silhouettes compact and engineered. The lowercase shows a high x-height with simplified, single-storey constructions and open, rectangular apertures; numerals echo the same softened-square geometry for a cohesive texture.
Best suited for display settings where its constructed, rounded-square forms can be appreciated—headlines, logos, posters, packaging, and tech or gaming-oriented visuals. It also works well for UI titles, dashboards, and on-screen labels where a bold, contemporary tone and clear, modular letterforms are desired.
The overall tone is modern and machine-made, with a distinctly futuristic, tech-forward voice. Its boxy curves and uniform weight suggest engineered precision rather than warmth, giving it an assertive, contemporary presence suited to digital and synthetic themes.
The design appears intended to translate superellipse geometry into a robust, contemporary sans that feels engineered and forward-looking. By standardizing curves into radiused corners and squarish bowls, it aims for a distinctive, high-impact texture that remains orderly and consistent across letters and figures.
The squared counters and tight internal radii produce strong patterning at text sizes, while the simplified joins and consistent stroke weight keep the word shapes stable and clean. The design’s distinctive geometry is most noticeable in rounded letters (C, O, S) and in the angular, constructed feel of diagonals and junctions.
