A crisp geometric sans with squared-off curves built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are monolinear with smooth, consistently radiused corners, giving bowls and counters a superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Proportions are compact and steady, with open apertures and straightforward construction; terminals generally end flat but softened by rounding. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a simple, legible skeleton, while the figures are sturdy and highly readable with clear differentiation.
Well-suited for UI and product environments where clarity at a range of sizes matters, including dashboards, labels, and wayfinding. The rounded-rectangle geometry also lends itself to contemporary branding and packaging, and it scales cleanly for short headlines and display lines.
The overall tone is modern and approachable: clean enough for interfaces and technical contexts, but softened by rounded corners that keep it from feeling harsh or overly industrial. It reads as practical and contemporary, with a subtle friendliness that suits everyday communication as well as product labeling.
The design appears intended to balance no-nonsense legibility with a softened geometric character, using consistent corner radii and monolinear strokes to create a stable, contemporary voice. It prioritizes clear shapes and dependable rhythm while adding approachability through rounded construction.
Round-corner detailing is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing a cohesive texture in text. The forms keep a slightly squared footprint in curves (e.g., O/Q/0-like shapes), which helps maintain a stable rhythm and strong alignment in dense settings.
