A compact geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with squared curves and consistently softened corners. Strokes are sturdy and even, with minimal taper and a generally uniform rhythm. Counters tend toward rectangular or squarish shapes, and many joins resolve into clean right angles rather than fully circular bowls. Terminals are blunt and clipped, giving a crisp, engineered finish, while the lowercase keeps simple, utilitarian constructions and a straightforward, single-storey feel where applicable. Figures follow the same modular logic, with boxy interiors and clear, high-contrast silhouettes against the page.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings such as headlines, posters, logotypes, product branding, packaging, and UI labels where a technical, compact voice is desired. It can work for captions and interface elements when space is tight, but its distinctive squared curves are most effective when used as a visual accent rather than for long reading passages.
The overall tone is modern and technical, leaning into a sci‑fi/industrial look that feels engineered and display-forward. Its squared curves and compact spacing convey efficiency and precision, with a faint retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of instrumentation, arcade, and product-marking aesthetics.
The font appears designed to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a distinctive rounded-rect geometry, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a consistent modular construction. The intent seems to be a contemporary techno display style that remains clean and legible while clearly signaling a specialized, engineered personality.
The design’s identity comes from its consistent superelliptical geometry: rounded corners are prominent, but bowls stay notably squared, producing a strong grid-like texture in words. The condensed proportions and tight internal shapes create dense blocks of text, making the style feel purposeful and assertive rather than neutral.
