A compact sans with monolinear strokes and softly squared curves that read as rounded-rectangle forms rather than purely circular bowls. Counters are relatively tight and the overall fit is economical, giving the alphabet a disciplined rhythm in text. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, with gentle rounding at corners to keep the texture smooth. Uppercase forms are straightforward and geometric; lowercase maintains a practical build with simple, sturdy shapes and minimal detailing.
Well suited to interface typography, dashboards, and data-rich layouts where compactness and steady texture are useful. It can also work for signage and informational print, and for straightforward branding or packaging that benefits from a modern, clean voice without sharp hardness.
The tone is matter-of-fact and contemporary, projecting clarity and efficiency more than personality. Its rounded-rectangle construction adds a mild friendliness while staying firmly in a functional, technical register. Overall it feels calm, systematic, and designed to stay out of the way in UI and information-heavy settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, highly legible sans built on superelliptical geometry, balancing strict structure with softened corners. It aims for dependable performance across labels, numbers, and continuous reading while maintaining a contemporary, system-like feel.
The sample text shows even color and consistent spacing at display sizes, with a controlled, slightly condensed footprint that helps long lines stay compact. Numerals match the same squared-round language, supporting a cohesive typographic system.
