A heavy, extended sans built from squared-off, superelliptical shapes with generously rounded corners. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with broad horizontal spans and compact internal counters that create a solid, blocklike color. Curves resolve into softened rectangles rather than perfect circles, and joins are clean and deliberate, giving the forms a modular, engineered feel. Letterforms show consistent rounding across terminals and corners, with occasional sharp diagonals for A, V, W, X, and Y that add bite to the otherwise smooth geometry.
Best suited to large sizes where its chunky geometry and rounded-rectangular construction can be appreciated—headlines, logotypes, product branding, packaging, posters, and on-screen UI in tech or gaming contexts. It can also work for badges, uniforms, and sports-themed graphics where bold, wide letterforms help establish presence.
The overall tone feels modern and machine-made, evoking sci‑fi interfaces, motorsport graphics, and industrial labeling. Its wide stance and heavy weight read as assertive and forward-driving, while the rounded corners keep the voice approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended as a contemporary display sans that merges rounded-rectangle construction with wide proportions for maximum impact. Its consistent corner rounding and monoline structure suggest an emphasis on scalable, screen-friendly shapes and a cohesive futuristic identity.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “a,” a boxy “o/0” with rounded-rectangle counters, and a segmented, stripe-like treatment in characters such as “S” and the numeral “3,” reinforcing the techno display flavor. The short ascenders/descenders and tight apertures contribute to a compact, high-impact silhouette.
