A heavy, blocky sans with a rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, with compact apertures and squared counters that read like cutouts from a solid shape. Curves are largely superelliptical, producing boxy bowls in letters like O, D, and P, while terminals tend to be flat and decisively clipped. The lowercase follows the same modular logic, with a single-storey a and g, short extenders, and a generally compact, engineered rhythm across text.
Best suited to short, bold settings where impact and a tech-forward voice are desirable—headlines, logos, product marks, packaging, and display signage. It can also work for UI titles and game HUD elements where chunky, modular shapes remain clear at a glance.
The overall tone is assertive and machine-made, suggesting digital interfaces and industrial labeling. Its squared-round geometry feels retro-futurist and game-like, balancing friendliness from the rounded corners with a no-nonsense, technical attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary display voice built from rounded-rectangular primitives. It prioritizes consistency, punch, and a constructed feel, creating a cohesive system that reads as modern, technical, and robust.
The numerals echo the same rounded-rectangular vocabulary, with clear, sturdy forms and enclosed shapes that stay visually consistent with the capitals. Letterforms maintain a tight, uniform texture in lines of text, emphasizing solidity over openness.
