A compact, monolinear sans with a strongly rectangular construction softened by rounded corners. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like shapes, giving counters a squarish, engineered feel (notably in O, Q, and the numerals). Strokes stay even with minimal modulation, terminals are blunt, and joins are crisp, producing a steady, grid-friendly rhythm. The overall set reads condensed with tall, narrow proportions and consistent character widths, creating a disciplined texture in continuous text.
Well suited to environments that benefit from alignment and predictable spacing, such as code snippets, terminal-style UI, tables, and technical readouts. It also works for compact headlines, labels, and captions where a condensed, structured voice is desired and space efficiency matters.
The tone is functional and no-nonsense, with a subtle retro-computing and signage flavor. Its strict geometry and consistent spacing feel methodical and technical rather than expressive, making it come across as dependable and precise.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient, uniform typographic system with a geometric, rounded-rectangle construction that stays clear at small sizes. Its disciplined proportions and consistent spacing prioritize alignment and repeatable texture, evoking contemporary interface typography with a hint of vintage terminal character.
Lowercase forms remain straightforward and legible with simple bowls and short, squared shoulders; dots and punctuation appear blocky and deliberate, reinforcing the engineered aesthetic. Rounded corners prevent the design from feeling harsh, balancing the condensed proportions with a slightly friendly finish.
