A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse contours, with broad proportions and a compact, squared rhythm. Strokes read as mostly monolinear but with crisp cut-ins and small internal counters that create a punchy, high-contrast impression at corners and joins. Terminals are predominantly squared-off with generous corner radii, producing a clean, machined silhouette. Counters and apertures are tight and often rectangular, and the overall spacing feels deliberate and sturdy, favoring blocky shapes over calligraphic flow.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, branding, poster typography, packaging, and environmental or wayfinding graphics where its squared-rounded geometry can read clearly. It can also work for UI labels and tech-themed interfaces when used at sufficiently large sizes with comfortable spacing. For long-form text, it will be more effective in short bursts or emphasized callouts than continuous paragraphs.
The font conveys a futuristic, engineered character that feels at home in digital interfaces and sci‑fi branding. Its rounded-square geometry gives it a friendly edge compared to sharp techno faces, while still reading as utilitarian and modern. The overall tone suggests speed, hardware, and synthetic precision with a subtle retro arcade influence.
The design appears intended to translate superelliptical, rounded-rect forms into a cohesive alphabet optimized for bold, contemporary display use. It prioritizes a consistent modular geometry and strong silhouettes, aiming for a distinctly techno-leaning voice while retaining approachable rounded corners.
Uppercase forms are especially boxy and uniform, while the lowercase introduces more distinctive silhouettes (notably the single-storey a and g) that keep text from becoming overly monotonous. Numerals share the same rounded-rect logic and appear designed for visual consistency in displays. At smaller sizes, the tight counters and apertures may prefer ample tracking and clear contrast to maintain legibility.
