A contrasted sans with a geometric, squared-off construction and softened corners. Vertical strokes read firm and straight while curves are built from broad, rounded rectangles, producing boxy counters in letters like O, D, P, and R. Joins and terminals are mostly blunt and flat, with selective rounding that keeps the texture smooth. Proportions favor compact, tall forms: capitals feel slightly narrow, and lowercase appears large relative to caps, creating a strong, even rhythm in text. Numerals and punctuation (where shown) follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with clear, open shapes and minimal ornament.
Best suited to display and short text where its squared curves and contrast can read as a deliberate stylistic choice—headlines, posters, logotypes, product branding, and interface labels. It can also work for brief informational copy when set with generous spacing and sizes that preserve the crisp counters.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered, with a subtle sci‑fi/tech flavor driven by squarish curves and crisp terminals. Its consistent geometry and controlled contrast convey efficiency and precision rather than warmth or tradition.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, tech-forward sans that remains highly legible while introducing distinctive squared bowls and controlled stroke modulation. It balances geometric uniformity with enough contrast and rounding to avoid a purely rigid, monoline feel.
Several key glyphs emphasize the family’s squared curvature: the C and G have rounded-rectangle openings, the S is angularized through flattened curves, and the a is single-storey with a firm, horizontal terminal. The i/j use square dots, reinforcing the modular, technical character.
