A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms with squared curves and generously radiused corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, with frequent diagonal shears and triangular notches that create sharp internal cut-ins, especially in counters and cross-strokes. Curves tend to resolve into flattened arcs rather than true circles, giving O-like shapes a squarish bowl and keeping terminals mostly blunt. The rhythm is compact and mechanical, with distinctive apertures and counters that feel engineered rather than handwritten.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, branding marks, packaging callouts, esports or gaming visuals, and tech-themed posters. It can also work for UI-style titling and signage where a bold, engineered look is desired, though its strong styling makes it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is futuristic and machine-made, suggesting control panels, racing graphics, and sci‑fi interfaces. Its aggressive cuts and blocky silhouettes add a sense of speed and toughness, while the rounded corners keep it approachable rather than harsh.
The font appears designed to deliver a distinctive techno display look by combining superelliptical bowls with purposeful diagonal cutaways, maximizing presence while maintaining a consistent geometric system across letters and figures.
The design leans on consistent corner radii and repeated diagonal motifs to unify the set, producing strong texture in headlines. Numerals follow the same squarish, notched construction, and the lowercase mirrors the uppercase’s geometric logic for a cohesive, display-oriented voice.
