A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with squared counters and broadly chamfered corners that create a superellipse-like skeleton. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many joins and terminals are softened rather than sharply cut, producing a dense, compact texture. Apertures tend to be narrow, interior counters are boxy, and several letters use inset cutouts that read as small notches or stencil-like breaks, giving the design a constructed, engineered feel. Uppercase forms are wide and stable; lowercase echoes the same geometry with simple, single-storey constructions and short extenders.
Best suited for display settings where impact and a technological tone are desired, such as headlines, posters, logos, product packaging, and sports or esports branding. It can also work for UI labels or navigation in games and tech interfaces when used at sufficiently large sizes to preserve the tight counters and inset details.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, with a futuristic, equipment-label energy. Its rounded squareness feels friendly enough to be approachable, but the tight apertures and notched detailing keep it firmly in a technical, performance-driven register. The result suggests speed, machinery, and contemporary sports or gaming aesthetics with a subtle retro arcade flavor.
The font appears designed to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a highly emphatic, modern display voice, prioritizing strong silhouette and consistent rhythm over open readability. The recurring notches and boxed counters look intentionally engineered to add a mechanical signature and differentiate the letterforms in branding contexts.
The design’s distinctive character comes from the combination of rounded outer corners and squared inner counters, plus recurring inset cuts that create a mechanical rhythm across the alphabet and numerals. The sample text shows strong line-to-line color and prominent word shapes, with the compact internal spaces becoming more pronounced at smaller sizes.
