A contrasted sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry and soft corners, with prominent stroke modulation that alternates between bold horizontal/curved strokes and hairline verticals. Counters are generally open and squarish, and many joins and terminals appear intentionally thinned, creating a sharp, engineered rhythm. The letterforms lean on simplified, modular construction (notably in bowls and arches), with occasional tapered or pinched transitions that add an almost ink-trap-like bite. Figures and capitals follow the same rounded-square framework, with a streamlined, display-oriented consistency.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and brand marks where its contrast and modular construction can read clearly. It also works well for tech and entertainment applications—app splash screens, interface headings, event graphics, and packaging—where a futuristic voice is desired. For long text or small UI labels, its hairline strokes may require generous sizing and careful contrast control.
The overall tone is futuristic and technical, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi titling, and engineered product aesthetics. Its high-contrast, hairline elements give it a sleek, slightly edgy character that feels contemporary and experimental rather than neutral. The rounded geometry keeps it friendly enough to avoid harshness, while the abrupt thins and cuts add drama and speed.
The design appears intended to merge geometric sans fundamentals with a dramatic, engineered contrast system—using hairline verticals and rounded-square bowls to create a distinctive, sci‑fi display texture. Its consistent modularity suggests a focus on creating recognizable word shapes and punchy titles rather than invisible, text-first neutrality.
Hairline verticals and tight apertures become visually delicate at smaller sizes, while larger sizes emphasize the intended contrast and stylized joins. Several glyphs use distinctive internal breaks and offset strokes that create a mechanical, segmented feel, reinforcing a designed-for-display personality.
