A heavy, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle modules and smooth superellipse curves. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness, while many letters are constructed from separated blocks with narrow, straight gaps that read as internal cuts, giving a stencil-like, segmented feel. Counters are small and often simplified; curves are broad and corner radii are generous, producing a soft but assertive silhouette. The lowercase sits high with compact bowls and short-looking extenders, and numerals follow the same modular logic for a cohesive, system-like texture.
Best suited to display contexts such as headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging, and title treatments where its modular gaps and compact counters can be appreciated. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when set large enough to preserve the interior separations and avoid filling-in at distance.
The overall tone is bold and graphic with a distinctly retro-futurist flavor—part 1970s display lettering, part contemporary UI iconography. Its segmented construction adds a playful, coded quality that feels engineered and stylized rather than neutral, making the rhythm more decorative and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to merge soft-cornered geometry with a segmented, almost stencil-driven construction to create a distinctive, systemized word shape. It prioritizes strong silhouette, pattern, and brand character over conventional text neutrality.
Because the shapes rely on interior cuts and tight apertures, legibility depends strongly on size and contrast; the distinctive segmentation becomes clearer at larger display settings. The design maintains consistent visual logic across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a strong brandable pattern when set in words or short phrases.
