A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms with consistent stroke thickness and softened corners. Counters are largely rectangular with rounded edges, and many joins resolve into clean right angles rather than continuous curves, giving the letterforms a modular, engineered feel. The proportions lean expansive and stable, with generous horizontals and open apertures; terminals are typically flat and squared-off, and diagonals (as in V, W, X) are straight and sharply articulated against the otherwise rounded system. Numerals follow the same boxy-rounded logic, producing a cohesive, display-oriented rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and branding systems that want a clean tech aesthetic—particularly for gaming, electronics, transportation, and sci-fi themed media. It also works well for interface labels and signage-style applications where compact, geometric forms and high contrast against backgrounds are desirable.
The overall tone reads futuristic and technical, reminiscent of digital interfaces, sci-fi titling, and industrial labeling. Its rounded corners keep the voice friendly and approachable, while the squared structure maintains a precise, machine-made character.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangular, UI-like geometry into a full alphanumeric set, prioritizing strong silhouette and consistency over traditional typographic modulation. It aims to deliver a contemporary, systematized look that remains readable while projecting a distinctly digital personality.
Distinctive superelliptical bowls (notably in O, Q, D, and 0) and squared inner counters create strong texture at larger sizes. The design’s rigid geometry makes it especially striking in all-caps and short bursts of text, where the consistent rounded-rectangle motif becomes a clear visual signature.
