A geometric sans with a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and consistent monoline strokes. Curves are expressed as squared-off bowls with softened corners, producing boxy counters in letters like O, D, P, and a. Terminals are mostly straight and horizontal/vertical, with occasional chamfered or clipped joins, giving diagonals (V, W, X, Y) a crisp, engineered feel. The overall rhythm is compact and orderly, with deliberate, simplified shapes and clear separation between stems and counters.
Best suited for interface labeling, wayfinding, packaging, and headline settings where a futuristic or technical voice is desired. It also works well for logos and product marks that benefit from a geometric, device-like personality, especially at medium to large sizes where the squared curves and counters read most distinctly.
The face conveys a distinctly technical, retro-futurist tone—clinical and instrument-like, yet friendly due to the rounded corners. Its modular geometry suggests digital interfaces, sci‑fi labeling, and late-20th-century techno aesthetics rather than classical or editorial warmth.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a highly consistent, modern sans for tech-forward communication. By favoring simplified construction, squared bowls, and uniform stroke behavior, it aims for a systematic, contemporary feel with strong visual identity.
Many glyphs emphasize rectangular counters and open apertures, which helps maintain clarity at display sizes while preserving the signature boxy softness. Figures follow the same rounded-rect logic, with simplified, angular construction in forms like 2, 3, 5, and 7, reinforcing a cohesive, systemized look across alphanumerics.
