A decorative serif with a squared, rounded-rectangle skeleton and consistently softened outer corners. Strokes are heavy and even, with small incised notches and short bracketless serifs that read as carved cut-ins rather than traditional wedges. Bowls and counters tend toward rectangular ovals (notably in O, C, D, and 0), while joins are clean and mechanical, creating a constructed, modular rhythm. Lowercase forms echo the caps with simplified, geometric structures; several characters use distinctive cut-away details and angled terminals that reinforce the engineered look.
Best used at display sizes where the notched serifs and squared curves remain crisp—headlines, logo wordmarks, posters, packaging, and themed signage. It can also work for short UI labels or game/interface titling where a futuristic or industrial voice is desired.
The overall tone is retro-futuristic and technical, combining a machine-made geometry with subtle ornamental carving. It feels suited to sci‑fi interfaces, arcade-era branding, and stylized industrial themes—confident, structured, and slightly exotic without becoming chaotic.
The font appears designed to merge classic serif cues with a highly geometric, manufactured construction, prioritizing distinctive silhouette and thematic flavor over neutrality. The repeated carved details and rounded-rectangular forms suggest an intention to evoke a retro-tech aesthetic while keeping letterforms broadly legible in short runs.
The design’s personality comes from repeated notch motifs on terminals and crossbars and from the contrast between broad, rounded outer shapes and sharper internal cut-ins. Numerals match the letterforms closely, with a boxy 0 and compact, graphic 2–9 that maintain the same squared-curved logic.
