A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle bowls and squared counters, with a consistent heavy stroke and softened corners. Curves tend to resolve into superellipse-like turns rather than true circles, giving forms a compact, engineered feel. The design favors horizontal emphasis: wide letterforms, long arms, and open apertures, with simplified joins and minimal contrast for a clean, modular rhythm. Lowercase mirrors the uppercase construction, keeping bowls boxy and terminals blunt, which maintains a uniform, mechanical texture in text.
Best suited for headlines, short UI labels, logos, and product/packaging where a wide, tech-forward silhouette can lead the visual identity. It performs especially well in large sizes for esports, automotive, and science/technology themes, and can work for brief blocks of text when generous tracking and line spacing are used.
The overall tone reads futuristic and technical, evoking digital interfaces, motorsport branding, and sci‑fi titling. Its squared geometry and rounded corners balance toughness with approachability, producing a confident, engineered voice rather than a humanist one.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, engineered look through superellipse-based geometry, wide proportions, and a strict monoline construction. The intention seems to prioritize strong silhouette, consistency across glyphs, and a distinctive sci‑fi/industrial flavor for display-driven typography.
Counters are generally rectangular and generous, helping separation at display sizes, while tight interior angles and straight-sided bowls can make dense paragraphs feel busy. Distinctive angular diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y) and squared roundforms (C/G/O/Q/0) reinforce a cohesive, constructed system.
