This typeface builds its forms from squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle geometry, with consistently softened corners and largely monolinear strokes. Curves feel superelliptical rather than circular, giving bowls and counters a gently boxy silhouette, while terminals tend to end in clean, straight cuts. Several joins and diagonals create sharp, pinched points (notably in V/W-like structures and the lower joins), adding a distinctive angular snap within an otherwise rounded framework. Proportions are even and steady, with open counters and clear interior space that keeps the texture legible in continuous text.
It suits branding systems that want a crafted geometric identity, as well as headlines, posters, and packaging where its squared-round shapes can carry personality. The controlled, engineered texture also works well for signage-style applications and UI titling where clear silhouettes and consistent rhythm matter.
The overall tone reads as retro-futurist and engineered—like lettering derived from signage, terminals, or modular industrial design. Rounded corners keep it friendly, while the squared curves and occasional pointed joins add a confident, slightly quirky edge. The result feels clean and systematic without becoming sterile.
The design intention appears to be a geometric sans with a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle construction—balancing friendly rounded corners with sharper internal joins to create a memorable, system-like voice. It aims for clarity and consistency while introducing a few distinctive structural cues to differentiate it from more purely circular geometrics.
Numerals and capitals share the same rounded-rectangular logic, producing a cohesive, grid-friendly voice. The design maintains a consistent rhythm across the alphabet, and the distinctive V/W constructions stand out as a recognizable signature feature in headings and short phrases.
