This typeface is built from squared, superellipse-like forms with heavily rounded corners and a uniform, monoline stroke. Curves resolve into smooth rectangular arcs rather than circles, creating boxy bowls and counters (notably in O, Q, o, and 0). Terminals are clean and generally vertical or horizontal, with occasional angled joins in diagonals like V, W, X, and Z. Spacing and rhythm feel engineered and modular, with broad letterforms and tight internal apertures that keep the texture dense and graphic at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, wordmarks, packaging, and bold branding where a technological or industrial voice is desired. It also fits UI and product-display typography in larger sizes, such as dashboard labels, game menus, and signage, where the blocky forms and rounded corners stay legible and distinctive.
The overall tone is futuristic and utilitarian, evoking digital interfaces, sci‑fi hardware labeling, and competitive sports graphics. Its squared-round geometry reads confident and mechanical, with a playful arcade edge that comes from the chunky silhouettes and simplified construction.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangle geometry into a strong, contemporary sans for high-impact display use. It prioritizes a cohesive modular system, producing a compact, engineered texture that signals modernity and speed.
Distinctive rectangular counters and rounded-rectangle bowls give the font a consistent “soft-cornered” system across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase maintains a sturdy, technical feel (single-storey a and g), while the numerals mirror the same squared curvature for a cohesive set.
