A geometric sans built from squared, superellipse-like forms with generously rounded corners and flat terminals. Strokes are heavy and even, creating a compact, blocky texture with minimal modulation. Counters tend toward rounded rectangles (notably in O, D, 0, 8), while several joins and diagonals are sharply cut, giving letters like A, K, V, W, X, Y a crisp, engineered feel. The lowercase is simple and sturdy with single-storey a and g, narrow apertures, and compact bowls; overall spacing reads tight and controlled, especially in all-caps settings.
Best suited for display typography where its blocky geometry can drive a strong visual identity—headlines, posters, packaging, esports and gaming interfaces, and tech-oriented branding. It can also work for short UI labels and signage at larger sizes where the tight apertures and compact counters remain clear.
The face conveys a modern, machinery-forward tone: efficient, coded, and slightly aggressive. Its squared geometry and rounded corners combine a friendly softness with a technical, hard-surface aesthetic, landing in a contemporary sci‑fi / industrial zone rather than a humanist one.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary voice through rounded-rectangle construction and simplified, modular letterforms. It prioritizes impact, consistency, and a distinctly technical texture, aiming for high recognizability in logos and large-type applications.
Distinctive details include an angular, triangular A with a small inner counter, a squared O/0 with rounded corners, and a Q featuring a diagonal tail that reads like a cut-in spur. Numerals share the same rounded-rectangle construction, with open, tech-like forms (notably 2, 3, 5) and a compact, modular rhythm. The overall silhouette stays consistent across glyphs, emphasizing uniform corner radii and squared bowls.
