A heavy, rounded-rect sans with superellipse construction and a distinctly modular feel. Corners are generously softened while straight runs stay crisp, producing a smooth “machined” silhouette. Many letters use horizontal slit-like counters and deliberate breaks/cut-ins, giving the forms a segmented, engineered rhythm rather than fully open apertures. Terminals are clean and squared, bowls tend toward rounded rectangles, and spacing reads compact and blocky in text while remaining highly consistent across the set.
Best suited to large-scale display settings such as headlines, posters, logos, and on-screen titles where the slot counters and segmented details can be appreciated. It’s a strong fit for gaming, esports, sci‑fi/tech branding, packaging callouts, and UI-style graphics, and should be used cautiously at small sizes where the narrow internal gaps may fill in.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical, with a confident, high-impact voice. Its rounded-square geometry and slot counters evoke sci‑fi interfaces and industrial labeling, while the softened corners keep it approachable enough for playful, game-like branding.
The design appears intended to blend rounded-square geometry with engineered cut details, creating a distinctive interface-inspired display voice. By using consistent superellipse forms and controlled internal slits, it aims to deliver immediate impact and a recognizable, tech-forward texture in short words and titling.
Several glyphs rely on narrow internal openings and stencil-like separations, which become a defining texture in words and lines. The digit set matches the same squared, streamlined logic, and the all-caps sample reads especially strong thanks to the uniform, modular construction.
