A heavy, slanted sans with monospaced spacing and compact, superellipse-like construction. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with rounded-rectangle corners and gently curved joins that keep the overall silhouette soft despite the mass. Counters are relatively small and openings are tight, producing a dense, emphatic texture; curves in letters like C, S, and G read as squared-off arcs rather than true circles. The figures match the letters in weight and presence, with sturdy, blocky shapes and simplified geometry for clear impact.
Best suited for high-impact headlines, posters, and branding where a compact, punchy voice is needed. The monospaced rhythm makes it a natural fit for UI readouts, dashboards, labels, and technical or utilitarian layouts, especially when used at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is assertive and workmanlike, with a sporty, industrial energy. Its softened corners temper the aggression of the weight, giving it a friendly, retro-utility feel that still reads tough and mechanical.
Likely designed to combine the disciplined cadence of monospaced typography with a bold, italicized display presence. The rounded-rectangle geometry suggests an intention to feel both mechanical and approachable—strong, compact forms with softened edges for broad visual appeal.
The consistent cell-like rhythm from the monospaced fit, combined with the forward slant, creates a sense of motion and urgency. At smaller sizes, the tight apertures and small counters may favor short bursts of text over extended reading.
