A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with softly squared curves and a consistent, modular construction. Strokes stay fairly even, with rounded terminals and frequent use of open counters and notched joins that create small cut-ins at corners. Bowls and curves lean toward squarish geometry rather than circular, giving letters like O, D, and 0 a compact, rounded-box silhouette. Spacing reads open and steady, and the overall rhythm is structured and systematic, with occasional asymmetrical details (notches, angled joins) adding texture.
Best suited to display typography where its modular geometry and notched detailing can be appreciated: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and editorial titling. It can also work for UI or tech-themed graphics in short bursts, especially where a distinctive, system-like voice is desired.
The tone feels clean and engineered, with a distinctly retro-futurist flavor—part digital display, part mid-century modern. Its rounded-square geometry keeps it friendly, while the angular notches and simplified shapes add a technical, slightly sci‑fi edge. Overall it reads playful and stylized without becoming decorative to the point of novelty.
The design appears intended to translate superelliptic, rounded-rect geometry into a full text alphabet with a consistent, constructed feel. By combining soft corners with purposeful cut-ins and simplified joins, it aims to balance friendliness and precision for modern, stylized display use.
Several glyphs show deliberate cutouts and corner notches (notably in B, S, g, and some diagonals), which can create a stenciled, constructed impression at larger sizes. The numeral set follows the same rounded-box logic, with an especially geometric 2 and a compact 8 built from stacked superelliptic bowls.
