A compact, monolinear sans with rounded-rectangle construction and squared curves throughout. Strokes are heavy and even, with blunt terminals and minimal modulation, creating dense counters and a steady, mechanical rhythm. Curved letters (C, G, O, S) read as softened boxes rather than true circles, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, I, L, T) emphasize flat horizontals and verticals. The lowercase follows the same blocky logic, with single-storey a and g, a broad-shouldered n/m, and a short-tailed t; punctuation and figures are similarly chunky and stable, with a simple, open 0 and sturdy 1–9 forms.
Well suited to interface labeling, dashboards, terminals, and other contexts that benefit from a consistent, mechanical texture. It also works for bold captions, product labeling, wayfinding, and short headlines where a compact, technical voice is desirable.
The overall tone is pragmatic and tool-like, with a retro-digital flavor that recalls labelling, instrumentation, and old-school computing. Its rounded corners soften the industrial feel, keeping it approachable while still reading as precise and engineered.
The font appears designed to deliver a robust, uniform texture with rounded-rectangular forms that stay legible and consistent across letters and numbers. The emphasis on blunt terminals and softened corners suggests a goal of combining industrial straightforwardness with a slightly friendly, retro-tech character.
The design favors clarity through consistent geometry and generous internal spacing for a heavy style, though the small apertures in some shapes can look intentionally compact at larger sizes. The figures are visually aligned in weight and proportion with the letters, supporting mixed alphanumeric settings without feeling like a separate system.
