A wide, squared sans with rounded corners and an engineered, modular construction. Strokes are heavy and uniform, opened up by a consistent inline channel that runs through the forms, creating a crisp, hollowed interior rhythm. Curves are minimized into softened rectangles and chamfer-like joins, giving counters a boxy geometry and keeping terminals clean and blunt. Overall spacing and silhouettes read sturdy and display-focused, with the inline detail staying even across straight and curved segments.
Best suited to large-size applications where the inline carving can be clearly seen: headlines, posters, branding marks, gaming or tech-themed graphics, and packaging titles. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when set generously, but the internal detailing favors display settings over long text.
The letterforms project a futuristic, technical attitude with a distinct retro arcade flavor. The inline cut gives a neon-sign or circuit-trace impression, balancing bold presence with a sense of precision and motion. It feels energetic and mechanized rather than humanist or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a structured, contemporary sci‑fi tone, using wide proportions and a consistent inline channel to create depth and a fabricated, industrial feel. The system prioritizes strong silhouettes and repeatable geometry for bold, attention-grabbing typography.
Distinctive details include the angular diagonals on letters like K, V, W, and X, and the squared, rounded-counter construction on O/Q and numerals, which reinforces the modular system. The inline channel adds texture at larger sizes and creates a layered look that can read like an outline-plus-inset without relying on contrast shifts.
