A compact, modular sans built from straight strokes and rounded-rectangle curves. The construction favors squared counters and softened corners, producing superellipse-like bowls and a consistent, engineered rhythm across the alphabet. Strokes stay even and crisp, terminals are predominantly flat, and curves transition quickly into verticals and horizontals for a disciplined, grid-friendly look. Numerals and capitals read sturdy and slightly condensed in feel, with distinctive angled joins in letters like A, V, W, and Y that reinforce the font’s geometric logic.
Well-suited to interfaces, dashboards, and technical documentation where alignment and consistent character rhythm are valuable. It also works effectively for terminal-inspired branding, schematic captions, packaging labels, and short headlines that benefit from a clean, modular texture.
The overall tone is practical and instrument-like, with a subtle retro-computing flavor. Its boxy rounding and strict cadence suggest labeling systems, terminals, and display readouts rather than expressive or calligraphic typography.
The design appears aimed at delivering a clear, systematized reading experience with a distinctive rounded-rect geometry. It prioritizes predictable spacing and a constructed, modern-industrial aesthetic that remains legible in dense settings.
Round letters (C, O, Q, G) are drawn as squared-off ovals with generous corner radii, which keeps the texture consistent even in running text. Lowercase forms lean toward simplified, constructed shapes (notably the single-storey a and g), helping maintain a cohesive, mechanical voice.
