A geometric sans with a squared, superelliptical construction: round forms are built from rounded-rectangle bowls and counters, and corners are consistently softened rather than fully circular. Strokes are monoline and heavy, with compact apertures and tight interior spaces that create a dense, poster-ready texture. Many curves resolve into flat terminals or chamfer-like transitions, giving letters a rectilinear rhythm even in traditionally curved shapes. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey feel where applicable, and the numerals follow the same boxy, rounded-corner logic for a cohesive alphanumeric set.
Best suited to headlines, branding marks, posters, and punchy labeling where its compact, engineered shapes can stand out. It also fits interface titling and game/tech UI elements, as well as wayfinding or packaging where a sturdy, futuristic voice is desired.
The overall tone reads techno and utilitarian, with a distinctly retro-futurist/arcade flavor. Its squared curves and tight counters suggest machinery, signage, and digital interfaces more than warm editorial typography.
The design appears intended to translate superelliptical, rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical display sans, emphasizing solidity and a controlled, modular rhythm. By keeping strokes uniform and counters tight, it aims for a strong, industrial presence that remains clean and systematic.
The face maintains strong stylistic consistency across caps, lowercase, and figures, with repeated rounded-rectangle counters and narrow openings that heighten the engineered look. In longer text, the dense color and compact internal shapes can feel assertive, favoring display use over small-size reading.
