A chunky geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly radiused outer corners. Strokes are heavy and largely monolinear, with squared-off terminals and compact, rectangular counters that often look carved out of the black mass. Many forms rely on stepped joints and notches (notably in diagonals and bowls), giving a slightly modular, cut-out feel while maintaining consistent curvature at corners. Proportions are broad and stable, with generous horizontal spans and tight internal apertures that emphasize the font’s solid, blocky silhouette.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its heavy, rounded-square forms can read as a graphic element—headlines, posters, game titles, and branding marks. It can also work for interface headers and tech-themed packaging or labels, especially where a robust, futuristic tone is desired.
The overall tone reads as futuristic and game-adjacent, combining a friendly rounded-square geometry with an engineered, machine-cut attitude. It evokes sci‑fi interfaces, arcade titling, and industrial labeling—confident, bold, and slightly retro-digital without becoming purely pixel-based.
The letterforms appear intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a bold, high-impact display voice with a techno edge. The notched details and compact counters suggest a deliberate effort to feel manufactured and modular while staying smooth and approachable through consistent corner radii.
The design favors high silhouette recognition over interior openness: counters and joins are intentionally tight, and some letters incorporate distinctive notches and inset shapes that act like functional cut lines. The numerals follow the same rounded-square logic, with a particularly strong, signage-like presence in the set.
