A heavy geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like forms, with softly radiused corners and mostly uniform stroke thickness. Counters tend toward squarish openings (notably in O, D, and 8), while joins and terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered. Proportions feel compact and sturdy, with wide shoulders and tight apertures that create a dense, high-contrast silhouette against the background. The lowercase shares the same squared-round construction, and the numerals echo the same rounded-box logic for a highly consistent set.
Best suited to display settings where its chunky rounded geometry can read as a strong graphic shape—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and short UI/tech callouts. It can work for short paragraphs at larger sizes, but the tight apertures and dense rhythm are most effective when used for emphasis rather than long-form reading.
The overall tone is futuristic and interface-like, with a distinctly retro-tech flavor reminiscent of sci‑fi titling and digital-era branding. Rounded corners keep it approachable and playful, while the squared geometry adds a purposeful, engineered feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a cohesive rounded-square aesthetic for contemporary display typography, balancing mechanical geometry with friendly corners for broad, modern branding and tech-forward themes.
Diagonal letters (A, K, V, W, X, Y) show softened, slightly stylized strokes that maintain the rounded-square theme rather than sharp intersections. The dotted i/j use simple round dots that reinforce the font’s softened geometry, and several letters adopt compact apertures that enhance the chunky, display-forward rhythm in text.
