A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superelliptical contours, with smooth, consistent corner radii and even stroke thickness throughout. The shapes are notably extended horizontally, producing a low, stretched silhouette and a strong baseline rhythm. Counters tend to be squarish-rounded, and many joins are softened rather than sharp, while select letters introduce angled strokes (notably in diagonals) for contrast. Several glyphs incorporate deliberate breaks and open terminals—especially in S-like curves and some lowercase forms—creating a semi-stencil, segmented construction without adding decoration.
Best suited to large sizes where its extended width, rounded-rect counters, and segmented strokes can read clearly—such as headlines, tech branding, product marks, posters, and packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or titling where a clean, futuristic voice is desired, but the stylization and breaks make it less ideal for long-form reading.
The overall tone reads modern and synthetic, with a sci‑fi interface feel driven by the wide proportions, rounded-square geometry, and engineered gaps. It suggests speed, technology, and precision, leaning more “display” than “text” in personality.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rect, industrial geometry into an approachable display sans, balancing soft corners with a machined, modular structure. The intentional openings and simplified forms aim to create a distinctive, high-tech signature while maintaining consistent system-like rhythm across letters and numerals.
Capitals carry much of the visual identity, with simplified, logo-like constructions and a consistent modular logic across curves and straights. The lowercase remains highly stylized and minimal, and the numerals echo the same rounded-rect architecture, keeping the set cohesive in headings and UI-style labeling.
