A geometric, modular sans with squared bowls and softened corners, drawing most curves as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. Strokes remain uniform throughout, with blunt terminals and consistent corner radii that create a cohesive, engineered rhythm. Counters are open and rectangular, and many joins favor clean right angles with occasional chamfered/rounded transitions. The overall proportion reads slightly expanded, with generous internal space and steady alignment that reinforces a systematic, grid-friendly texture in text.
Well-suited to interface typography where consistent spacing and predictable shapes help scanning—such as menus, settings screens, HUD-style overlays, and component labels. It also fits code snippets, tabular readouts, and technical documentation, and can add a controlled, retro-tech voice to posters or packaging that aims for an industrial/modernist feel.
The font feels technical and practical, with a subtle retro-computing flavor that recalls terminals, labelling systems, and industrial interfaces. Its rounded-rect geometry softens the strictness, keeping the tone approachable while still precise and machine-made.
The design appears intended to provide a clear, systematic reading experience with a distinctly geometric, rounded-rect signature. By using uniform strokes and standardized curves, it prioritizes consistency across glyphs and an efficient, instrument-like presence in continuous text.
Distinctive superellipse-like shapes show up strongly in O/C/G and the numerals, while diagonals (e.g., K, V, W, X, Y) keep a crisp, constructed look through consistent stroke weight and controlled angles. The result is a steady, even color in paragraphs, with clear letter separation and minimal flourish.
