A monoline geometric sans built from squared curves and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms. Strokes keep a consistent thickness and terminate with softly rounded corners, giving counters a boxy-yet-smooth feel. Many curved letters (C, G, O, Q, e) read as rounded squares, while straight-sided characters (E, F, H, I, L, T) emphasize a tidy, engineered rhythm. Spacing appears even and controlled, with open apertures and simplified joins that favor clarity over calligraphic nuance.
Well suited to user interfaces, dashboards, and on-screen typography where a clean, geometric voice is desired. It can also support modern branding systems and packaging that benefit from a technical, contemporary feel, especially at medium to large sizes where the superelliptical shapes read most clearly.
The overall tone is modern and utilitarian, with a subtle sci‑fi/tech flavor driven by the rounded-rect geometry and disciplined stroke behavior. It feels calm and systematic rather than expressive, suggesting interfaces, instrumentation, and contemporary digital product aesthetics.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, legible sans with a consistent, engineered rhythm. It prioritizes simplicity and coherence across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals while maintaining a distinctive squared-round signature.
Distinctive details include the squarish bowls and counters, a compact, modular construction in both cases, and numeral forms that echo the same rounded-rectangle logic (notably 0, 2, 3, 5, 8). The lowercase maintains a simple, single-storey approach where applicable, reinforcing the streamlined, functional character.
