A compact geometric sans built from squared, rounded-rectangle forms with consistently thick strokes and minimal contrast. Corners are softly radiused, giving counters and bowls a superelliptical, boxy rhythm rather than fully circular curves. Terminals tend to be blunt and flat, with occasional angled joins (notably in diagonals and the K/X/V shapes), producing a crisp, engineered texture. The lowercase follows a simplified, almost unicase logic with single-storey constructions and tight apertures, while figures share the same squared, rounded geometry for a uniform, blocky color in text.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and display settings where its compact, squared forms can create a strong graphic stamp. It also works well for interface labels, dashboards, and signage that benefit from an engineered, high-structure look. For long passages, it will read most comfortably at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The overall tone is technical and machine-made, evoking digital signage, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its boxy softness reads both futuristic and slightly retro, like early computer or arcade typography updated with cleaner geometry.
The font appears designed to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, legible alphabet with a distinctly digital/industrial voice. Its simplified constructions and consistent stroke treatment suggest an intention to deliver a sturdy, system-like presence across letters and numbers.
The design prioritizes clear, modular silhouettes over calligraphic nuance, with a strong gridlike feel and pronounced right angles softened by consistent rounding. In running text it creates a dense, patterned texture, especially where repeated verticals and squared counters stack up.
