A geometric sans built from squared, superellipse-like forms with generous corner rounding and largely monoline strokes. Curves resolve into rounded rectangles rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a boxy, engineered feel. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, and the overall rhythm is compact with sturdy verticals and wide, stable horizontals. The figures follow the same squared geometry, with simplified shapes and consistent rounding that keeps texture even in dense settings.
This font performs best in headlines and short bursts of text where its squared curves and compact texture can read as intentional design. It suits tech-leaning branding, packaging, and UI-style graphics, and can work well for wayfinding or labels where sturdy shapes and consistent forms support quick recognition.
The tone reads technical and industrial, with a clean, machine-made character. Its rounded-rect geometry feels contemporary and interface-forward, while the heavy, compact silhouettes add a confident, utilitarian punch suited to display moments.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, modern sans with a strong, system-like consistency. It prioritizes bold, compact presence and a controlled, engineered aesthetic over humanist modulation or calligraphic detail.
Open apertures and squared counters help maintain clarity at larger sizes, and the consistent corner treatment creates a cohesive system across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. The overall texture is dark and steady, with minimal flourish and an emphasis on structural simplicity.
