This typeface is built from straight strokes and rounded-rectangle curves, producing square-shouldered, superellipse-like rounds in letters such as O, C, and G. Terminals are flat and decisive, with consistent stroke thickness and broad, open counters that keep forms readable at display and text sizes. The overall geometry is compact and orderly, with crisp right angles balanced by soft corner radiusing, giving both uppercase and lowercase a systematic, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same constructed logic, with simplified, sturdy shapes and generous internal space.
Well-suited to settings where alignment and consistent character widths matter, such as code samples, command-line or terminal-style interfaces, and data-heavy dashboards. Its clean, boxy rounds also work effectively for UI labels, technical documentation, and compact packaging or device graphics where a controlled, engineered look is desired.
The overall tone is pragmatic and technical, with a slightly retro, machine-interface feel. Its rounded-corner construction softens the strict geometry, keeping the voice approachable while still feeling precise and functional.
The design appears intended to deliver a clear, systematized reading experience with a distinctive squared-round personality—combining practical construction and dependable legibility with a subtly retro-tech aesthetic.
The gridlike regularity and uniform set widths create a strong typographic cadence, and the squarish bowls make the design feel more architectural than humanist. Punctuation and basic symbols in the sample text appear sturdy and clear, matching the font’s squared-round motif.
