A chunky geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) forms and broad, even strokes. Corners are heavily softened and terminals are blunt, giving most letters a compact, blocky silhouette despite generous width. Counters tend to be small and squarish with rounded corners, and several shapes use horizontal cut-ins and notch-like joins that create a crisp, engineered feel. The lowercase is sturdy and simple, with single-storey forms and minimal modulation; figures follow the same rounded-square construction for a uniform, system-like texture.
This font is best suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, posters, and other large-size applications where its rounded-square geometry can be appreciated. It also fits UI titles, gaming overlays, and tech-oriented graphics that benefit from a strong, engineered look. For long passages of small text, the tight counters and heavy texture may feel dense, so it’s most effective as a display face.
The overall tone feels futuristic and industrial, with a confident, high-impact presence. Its rounded-square geometry reads as modern and tech-forward, while the softened corners keep it approachable and slightly playful. The notched detailing adds a subtle sense of speed and machinery, lending it a sporty edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, hardware-inspired sans with strong impact and a distinctive superelliptical skeleton. The softened corners and consistent rounded-rectangle counters aim to balance toughness with friendliness, while the occasional notches and cut-ins add a custom, futuristic signature.
In text, the dense interiors and squared counters create a dark, compact color that stands out strongly. The distinctive superelliptical construction is very consistent across letters and numerals, which helps it feel like a cohesive display family. Some glyphs feature deliberate cutaways and asymmetries that add character and differentiate similar shapes.
