A heavy, block-constructed sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and uniform, with compact, squared counters and frequent vertical slit openings that give many letters a cut-in, almost stencil-like interior. Curves are minimized into superelliptical bowls, producing squarish O/C shapes and a strong, modular rhythm. Terminals tend to be flat and horizontal, and the overall spacing and sidebearings feel built for tight, impactful setting rather than delicate detail.
Best suited to display settings where bold shapes and distinctive geometry can be appreciated: headlines, posters, branding marks, product packaging, and entertainment or gaming interfaces. It works well when you want a compact, high-impact word shape with a retro-tech or industrial edge, especially at larger sizes where the cut-in counters stay clear.
The tone is bold and commanding with a distinctly industrial, techno flavor. Its rounded-block forms evoke retro arcade and sci‑fi display lettering, balancing friendliness from the softened corners with a tough, mechanical presence. The repeated interior notches add a crafted, engineered character that reads as intentional and graphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through a modular, rounded-rectangular construction, while adding recognizability via repeated slit-like counter cuts. It prioritizes a graphic, engineered silhouette that remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures for strong branding and display use.
The design relies on exaggerated mass and simplified construction, so small sizes may cause interior slits and tight counters to fill in, while larger sizes emphasize the geometric styling. Numerals follow the same squared, cut-in logic and read as cohesive with the caps and lowercase, reinforcing a strong headline voice.
