This sans has a squared, superelliptical construction: round forms read as rounded rectangles with consistent corner radii and a steady, even stroke. Curves transition quickly into straights, creating a compact, engineered feel, while counters remain open and legible. Terminals are generally blunt with softened corners, giving the outlines a clean but not sharp edge. Uppercase proportions are tall and tidy, and the lowercase keeps a straightforward, single‑storey look where applicable, maintaining a regular rhythm across text.
It performs well in interface typography—menus, settings, dashboards, and device readouts—where a clean, geometric rhythm supports quick scanning. The squared rounds also make it a strong choice for product branding, packaging, and wayfinding systems that want a modern, engineered look without harsh corners.
The overall tone is technical and pragmatic, with a restrained, contemporary voice that feels suited to digital interfaces and engineered products. Rounded corners temper the geometry, keeping the style friendly enough for everyday UI while still reading as purposeful and systematic.
The design appears intended to merge geometric clarity with softened corners, delivering a contemporary sans that feels precise, consistent, and highly usable in practical layouts. The superelliptical shaping suggests an emphasis on a cohesive system of forms that remains legible while projecting a technical, product-forward personality.
Figures and capitals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, producing a cohesive, grid-like texture at display sizes. Diacritics and dots appear simple and compact, reinforcing the controlled, no-frills aesthetic.
