A geometric, modular display face built from mostly monoline strokes with heavily rounded outer corners and squared counters. Forms are compact and boxy, favoring straight segments and broad radii over traditional curves, with occasional angled joins that add a slightly mechanical rhythm. The alphabet shows deliberate idiosyncrasies—single‑storey a and g, a sharp-armed y, and an angular, wide W—while maintaining consistent stroke thickness and a clean, schematic silhouette.
Best suited to short headlines, branding marks, and poster typography where its modular geometry can be read at larger sizes. It also fits interface-style graphics such as game UI, sci-fi themed titles, and tech-forward packaging where a structured, arcade-like voice is desirable.
The overall tone feels retro-futuristic and game-like, combining friendly rounded corners with a rigid, engineered structure. Its quirky construction reads as experimental and slightly offbeat, lending an energetic, playful voice that still feels orderly and technical.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-square, digital-industrial motif into a full alphanumeric set, prioritizing distinctive silhouettes and a cohesive modular system over conventional text ergonomics. Its controlled stroke weight and softened corners suggest a deliberate balance between mechanical precision and approachable character.
Spacing and sidebearings appear tuned for display use, with many glyphs occupying squarish footprints and creating a staccato, tiled texture in words. Numerals and caps share the same rounded-rectangle logic, helping mixed-case and alphanumeric settings keep a consistent, system-like look.
