A geometric sans built from squared, superelliptic shapes with generously rounded corners and consistent, monoline stroke weight. Curves resolve into smooth, rectangular arcs rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a boxy, engineered feel. Proportions are broad with compact counters and short apertures, producing dense, high-contrast silhouettes at display sizes. Terminals are mostly blunt and flat, and the rhythm is steady and modular, with a mix of squared forms and occasional open, C-like cuts in letters such as C, G, and S.
Best suited to display contexts where the wide, modular shapes can be appreciated: headlines, posters, logotypes, product marks, and tech or gaming interface titling. It also fits signage or labeling that benefits from a sturdy, engineered presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is technical and futuristic, with a retro-digital flavor reminiscent of arcade, sci‑fi UI, and industrial labeling. Its rounded-rectangle geometry reads confident and machine-made, while the softened corners keep it approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive alphabet with a distinctly engineered, screen-ready personality. By prioritizing uniform stroke weight, squared bowls, and softened corners, it aims for a contemporary sci‑fi/industrial aesthetic that remains clean and legible in short text.
Many glyphs emphasize rectangular counters and inset cutouts (notably in B, D, O/Q, and numerals), reinforcing a constructed, panel-like look. The forms favor clarity through strong silhouettes, but the tight apertures and stylized joins can make long passages feel busy compared to more open grotesks.
