This typeface is built from geometric, squared-off forms with generously rounded corners, creating a rounded-rectangle skeleton across bowls, counters, and terminals. Strokes are consistently heavy and even, with minimal modulation and a compact feel that keeps internal counters relatively tight. Curves tend toward superelliptical arcs rather than circular rounds, and joins are clean and mechanical, reinforcing a sturdy, engineered rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same blocky architecture, with a distinctly squared “0” and similarly rectilinear bowls throughout.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and bold branding where its squared-rounded geometry can define a strong visual identity. It also fits product packaging and UI/wayfinding labels that benefit from a technical, device-like voice, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone reads as technical and industrial, with a retro-digital edge reminiscent of instrumentation, interface labeling, and engineered products. Its rounded corners soften the rigidity, making it feel approachable while still firmly modern and machine-like.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary geometric sans with a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle construction—aiming for a robust, modern look that feels at home in technology, industrial design, and futuristic display typography.
The design favors strong silhouettes and simple, high-contrast shapes at display sizes, while tighter apertures and compact counters suggest it may need breathing room in smaller settings. Diagonals (e.g., in A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) stay straight and decisive, balancing the rounded-rectangle curves elsewhere.
