A compact, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse forms, with squared curves, soft corners, and largely uniform stroke thickness. The design emphasizes horizontals and straight runs, often carving counters and apertures as clean slots, giving many letters a sculpted, cut-in look. Curves are simplified into controlled radiused turns, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y/Z) stay crisp and angular against the otherwise rounded framework. Uppercase shapes read wide and low with a steady rhythm; lowercase follows the same modular logic with single-storey forms and rectangular counters.
Best suited to display settings where its wide, stylized geometry can read clearly—headlines, wordmarks, packaging, posters, and tech/sci‑fi themed graphics. It can also work for interface titles or in-game UI labels when given adequate size and spacing, while long-form body copy is less ideal due to the strong interior cutout motifs.
The overall tone is futuristic and engineered, evoking digital interfaces, racing graphics, and arcade-era techno styling. Its blocky softness feels both assertive and approachable—more streamlined machine design than brutalist slab.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact sans with a superelliptical construction and a recognizable, system-like texture. It prioritizes a cohesive geometric language and bold silhouette for branding and titling over conventional text neutrality.
The face relies on distinctive internal notches and horizontal cutouts (notably in E/S/3-like structures), which creates a strong brand signature but also makes small sizes and dense text more visually busy. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with a particularly technical, segmented flavor in several figures.
