A geometric, monoline sans built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse forms and straight, orthogonal strokes. Corners are consistently softened, giving letters a squared silhouette with smooth radii rather than circular bowls. Proportions feel compact and engineered, with open apertures and simplified joins; diagonals appear mainly where necessary (e.g., K, V, W, X), while many curves resolve into flattened arcs and straight segments. Numerals and lowercase follow the same modular logic, producing a uniform, grid-friendly texture in text.
Well suited to interface typography, dashboards, and product labeling where a crisp, engineered look is desired. It can also support tech-forward branding, packaging, and poster headlines, and works effectively in short-to-medium text blocks when a modern, digital texture is appropriate.
The overall tone is contemporary and technical, with a subtle sci‑fi/industrial flavor. Its squared curves and consistent rounding read as digital and UI-adjacent, while the minimal stroke modulation keeps the voice neutral and matter-of-fact rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangular, modular geometry into a practical sans for contemporary screen and print contexts. By keeping strokes even and shapes systematically rounded, it aims for a controlled, futuristic aesthetic that remains readable and consistent across letters and numerals.
Rounded terminals and corners are a defining feature across the set, creating a cohesive, system-like feel. The design favors legibility through straightforward construction and clear counters, with distinctive squared bowls in characters like C, G, O, and Q that reinforce the font’s geometric identity.
