A heavy, blocky sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with consistently softened corners and largely orthogonal construction. Counters and apertures are tight and often reduced to small rectangular cuts, giving many letters a semi-stencil feel (notably in E, F, S, and several lowercase forms). Strokes read as monoline at display sizes, with crisp interior notches and minimal curvature beyond the corner radii. Proportions are squat and broad, with a sturdy baseline and a compact, mechanical rhythm; lowercase forms keep simple, boxy silhouettes, with dotted i/j rendered as small rounded squares.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, wordmarks, game titles, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for UI labels or signage where a techno-industrial aesthetic is desired, though the compact apertures favor larger sizes and generous tracking.
The overall tone is assertive and engineered—more “hardware/console UI” than humanist. Its squared, cut-out detailing and dense black massing evoke retro arcade title screens, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling, projecting confidence and impact rather than warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a cohesive rounded-rectangle motif, pairing softened corners with sharp internal cut geometry for a distinctive, machine-made look. It prioritizes silhouette strength and thematic consistency over open readability, aiming squarely at display-driven branding and titles.
Several glyphs rely on distinctive internal cutouts instead of open bowls, which boosts visual uniformity but reduces inner whitespace. Numerals are similarly chunky and geometric, with the 0 using a narrow vertical counter and the 1 appearing as a simplified vertical block, reinforcing the utilitarian, modular voice.
