A compact, monospaced sans with squared, rounded-rectangle construction and consistent stroke thickness. Curves resolve into superellipse-like corners rather than true circles, giving counters a softly boxy geometry. Terminals are blunt and clean, with minimal modulation and a steady, even rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and figures. The lowercase shows simple, upright forms with single-storey shapes where expected, while punctuation and dots read as square and purposeful, reinforcing a grid-aligned, engineered feel.
Well-suited for coding environments, terminal-style interfaces, and any layout where strict alignment matters, such as tables, logs, and dashboards. It also works for compact UI labels and technical documentation where a steady, grid-based texture supports scanning.
The overall tone is functional and technical, with a subtle retro-computing or instrumentation flavor. Its disciplined spacing and squared softness feel pragmatic rather than expressive, projecting clarity, restraint, and dependability.
The design appears aimed at a clean, modern monospaced voice that stays legible under tight spacing, using rounded-rectangle geometry to soften the industrial feel without sacrificing precision. It prioritizes consistency and alignment, suggesting use in on-screen systems, interfaces, and structured text.
Round letters like O and Q appear more rounded-square than oval, and diagonals (A, V, W, X) keep a sturdy, slightly angular presence within the fixed cell width. Figures are clear and uniform, designed to hold alignment in tabular or code-like settings.
