A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) contours, with broad proportions and a sturdy, even stroke. Corners are consistently softened, terminals are mostly flat, and counters are squarish with rounded interiors, creating a modular, constructed feel across the set. The lowercase shows simple, engineered forms (single-storey a and g) and a compact, squared rhythm, while numerals follow the same rounded-box logic for strong visual consistency.
Best suited to display roles where its constructed geometry can be a feature: headlines, posters, logotypes, tech branding, packaging, and signage/wayfinding. It also fits UI titling and game/interface graphics where compact, squared forms and high visual solidity help text read as functional labels.
The overall tone reads technical and machine-made, with a clean, industrial confidence. Its rounded-square geometry evokes digital interfaces, equipment labeling, and sci‑fi display aesthetics—cool, controlled, and slightly retro-futuristic rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive alphabet, prioritizing a consistent modular system over humanist detailing. It aims for a contemporary techno voice that remains clean and legible while projecting a sturdy, engineered presence.
The face relies on consistent corner radii and rectangular counters to keep texture uniform, which helps short labels look solid and cohesive. At larger sizes the distinctive squarish bowls and rounded corners become a defining character feature, while at smaller sizes the dense, block-like shapes may benefit from generous spacing.
