A geometric, monoline sans with rounded outer corners and chamfered, near-octagonal curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and shapes are built from straight segments plus short radiused turns, creating a modular, engineered feel. Counters are mostly rectangular or softly squared (notably in O, D, 0, and 8), and joins tend to be clean and uniform. Proportions read slightly narrow and tall, with a large x-height and simple, open lowercase forms that keep the texture even in paragraphs.
Best suited for display settings where its geometric character can read clearly—headlines, logos, product branding, and tech-themed posters. It also works well for short UI labels, dashboards, and packaging callouts where a clean, engineered texture helps maintain consistency. For long-form text, it’s most effective at comfortable sizes with generous spacing to preserve the internal shapes.
The overall tone feels futuristic and instrument-like, blending a retro digital sensibility with contemporary UI/tech aesthetics. Its rounded corners soften the hard geometry, giving it a friendly but still utilitarian voice. The consistent rhythm and mechanical construction suggest precision and modernity rather than calligraphic warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, modular sans voice that feels technical and forward-looking while remaining approachable through rounded corners and steady stroke behavior. It prioritizes uniformity and recognizable silhouette over traditional humanist detailing, aiming for a cohesive system across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Distinctive chamfers appear at key corners in both letters and numerals, producing a subtle stencil/terminal effect without breaking the strokes. The lowercase has a straightforward, geometric construction (single-storey a, compact bowls), and the numerals echo the same squared-counter language for a cohesive set.
