A crisp, monospaced sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout, where curves resolve into softly squared corners rather than perfect circles. Strokes are even and consistent, with a tall, narrow feel and generous internal counters that keep letters open at text sizes. Terminals are blunt and flat, and many forms show subtly straightened bowls (notably in round letters and numerals), giving the face a structured, engineered rhythm. The overall spacing is uniform and grid-friendly, reinforcing a disciplined texture in paragraphs and code-like settings.
Well-suited to code, terminal output, and any interface context where fixed-width alignment matters, such as tables, dashboards, logs, and configuration screens. It also works for concise UI labels and technical documentation where a steady, uniform rhythm supports scanning.
The tone is functional and technical, with a calm, no-nonsense presence that reads as contemporary and tool-oriented. Its rounded corners soften the mechanical geometry, adding approachability without losing precision.
Designed to deliver dependable legibility and alignment in monospaced environments while differentiating itself through rounded-rectangle geometry. The intent appears to balance a system-font practicality with a subtly softened, modern industrial character.
The font’s superellipse-like curves create a distinctive “squared-round” silhouette that stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Numerals match the letterforms’ straight-sided geometry, producing a cohesive, modular look in mixed alphanumeric strings.
