A geometric, square-serifed Latin design with mostly uniform stroke thickness and crisp, flat terminals. Letterforms mix boxy outer contours with selective rounded bowls, creating a modular rhythm: squared shoulders and corners are paired with open, circular counters in glyphs like O/Q and the lowercases. Serifs are slab-like and assertive, often appearing as squared caps at stroke ends, while joins stay clean and rectilinear. Proportions feel broad and stable, with a prominent x-height and compact ascenders/descenders that keep lines visually dense and even in running text.
Best suited to headlines and short text where its distinctive geometry can carry personality—posters, branding systems, logotypes, packaging, and editorial display. It can also work for UI labels or wayfinding in larger sizes when a technical, modular flavor is desired.
The overall tone reads as retro-futurist and technical, evoking signage, terminals, and early digital or industrial aesthetics. Its squared details and monoline discipline give it a schematic, engineered feel, while the occasional rounded curves keep it approachable rather than purely mechanical.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif authority with a constructed, square-terminal vocabulary, producing a bold, recognizable texture that feels both industrial and retro-digital. It prioritizes a strong silhouette and consistent rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals for impactful display use.
Distinctive, stylized constructions (notably the angular S, the squared-off curves on C/G, and the decorative joints in several lowercase forms) make the face more display-oriented than purely utilitarian. Numerals follow the same square-and-curve logic, with strong horizontals and squared ends that reinforce the modular voice.
