This typeface is built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry with heavy, even strokes and generously filleted corners. Curves tend to square off into soft corners rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a boxy, engineered feel. Terminals are mostly blunt and rounded, with a consistent stroke thickness and compact apertures; the overall texture is dense and highly graphic. The lowercase shows simplified, geometric constructions (single-storey forms where applicable) and the numerals follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic for a unified, modular rhythm.
Best suited for display settings where its superelliptical construction and dense black shape can be appreciated—headlines, posters, branding marks, product packaging, and UI/tech-themed graphics. It also works well for short labels and titles where a futuristic or industrial flavor is desired.
The overall tone feels technological and slightly retro, reminiscent of digital interfaces, arcade-era graphics, and industrial labeling. Its chunky silhouettes and softened corners balance a mechanical voice with a friendly, game-like energy, making it attention-grabbing rather than understated.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a rounded-rectangular, modular system into a cohesive alphabet, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a consistent geometric logic. The intention leans toward a distinctive, tech-forward display voice with a playful edge rather than neutral, long-form readability.
The design’s squared curves create distinctive word shapes and a strong grid-like rhythm, which reads especially well in larger sizes and short strings. The compact counters and tight openings can reduce clarity in small text, but they reinforce the font’s bold, display-oriented personality.
