A clean, geometric sans with squared curves and softly rounded corners that give many forms a rectilinear, “rounded-rectangle” skeleton. Strokes show noticeable contrast, with thinner joins and diagonals against firmer verticals and horizontals, creating a crisp, engineered rhythm. Counters tend to be boxy and open, terminals are mostly straight and cut cleanly, and several letters emphasize symmetry and modular construction (notably in rounded glyphs like O/Q and in numerals). The overall spacing and forms read airy and controlled, favoring clarity over warmth.
Well suited to interface typography, dashboards, and wayfinding where a crisp, engineered look is desirable. It also fits technology and product branding, packaging, and short headlines that benefit from a modern, constructed aesthetic; the open forms help maintain legibility at smaller sizes while the stylized geometry stands out at display sizes.
The font projects a contemporary, tech-forward tone—precise, streamlined, and slightly sci‑fi. Its squared curves and restrained detailing feel architectural and modern, suggesting digital interfaces, instrumentation, and product design contexts rather than expressive or historical typography.
The design appears intended to blend modernist sans simplicity with a more constructed, futuristic geometry. By pairing squared curves with controlled contrast and clean terminals, it aims to feel efficient and contemporary while remaining readable in practical settings.
Diagonal-heavy shapes (such as V/W/X and parts of K/Y) appear more dynamic due to thinner diagonal strokes, while rounded forms maintain a consistent squircle-like contour. The numeral set continues the same modular logic, with clean, squared bowls and minimal ornamentation, supporting a cohesive system across text and figures.
