A heavy, soft-cornered sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with broad horizontal stance and strongly squared counters. Strokes are consistent in weight, with blunt terminals and minimal contrast, producing a dense, blocky silhouette. Curves tend to resolve into superelliptical corners rather than true circles, and many forms show deliberate notches or cut-ins (notably in joins and apertures), adding a machined, modular rhythm. Lowercase forms stay compact and robust, with simple single-storey constructions and tight internal spaces, while figures are similarly squarish and sturdy for high-impact settings.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and packaging where a bold, compact word shape is needed. It also fits UI-style display work—gaming, tech branding, signage, and merch—where the squared-round geometry and sturdy numerals can carry a strong, contemporary-retro voice.
The overall tone feels futuristic and industrial with a distinctly retro flavor—like control-panel labeling or arcade-era titling—tempered by friendly rounded corners. Its chunky shapes read confident and assertive, with a playful edge coming from the quirky cut-ins and squared bowls.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact through dense, rounded-rectangular forms and a consistent monoline structure, while adding personality via deliberate cut-ins and squared counters. The intention reads as a display face that stays highly recognizable at a glance and maintains a cohesive, modular system across caps, lowercase, and figures.
The design favors large, rectangular counters and short apertures, so texture becomes dark and uniform in paragraphs. Distinctive details like the angled leg on the uppercase R, the diagonals in K and X, and the squared, inset counters in O/Q/0 contribute to a constructed, modular character that remains consistent across letters and numerals.
