A clean, modular sans with squared geometry softened by rounded corners and superelliptical curves. Strokes are even and consistent, producing sturdy stems and crisp terminals that often end in flat cuts. Round letters like O, C, and G feel like rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay straightforward and angular. Lowercase forms are compact and tidy with single-storey a and g, a simple earless r, and an i/j built from straight stems with square dots, reinforcing a systematic, grid-friendly rhythm.
Well suited to code-adjacent UI, dashboards, tables, and any layout that benefits from strict alignment and consistent character widths. It also works for labeling, instructions, and compact captions where clarity and regular rhythm are more important than expressive personality.
The tone is practical and no-nonsense, with a subtle retro-tech flavor reminiscent of terminals, labeling systems, and industrial signage. Its controlled geometry and predictable spacing give it an orderly, engineered feel rather than a warm or calligraphic one.
The design appears intended to deliver highly consistent, mechanically constructed letterforms optimized for alignment and clear differentiation between similar characters. Rounded-square curves temper the rigidity, keeping the texture friendly enough for extended on-screen reading while maintaining a distinctly technical voice.
Capitals read tall and stable, with a relatively narrow E/F and a rounded-rect Q featuring a short, contained tail. Numerals match the same construction, with a rectangular 0 that includes an interior counter mark, helping distinguish it in code-like contexts. Overall spacing is consistent and disciplined, supporting dense settings without looking fragile.
