A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superelliptic forms, with broad proportions and a low, even rhythm. Strokes read mostly monolinear, but corners and terminals are treated with pronounced rounding and occasional tapered joins, giving a crisp yet softened silhouette. Counters are roomy and often squared-off inside (notably in round letters), while straight-sided letters lean on simple verticals and long horizontals for a clean, engineered feel. Numerals and capitals maintain the same modular logic, with flattened curves, wide bowls, and consistent corner radii that keep the set visually uniform.
Best suited to display sizes where its wide stance and rounded-rect geometry can read as a deliberate stylistic choice—headlines, logotypes, product branding, and poster graphics. It can also work for UI or dashboard titling where a modern, system-like voice is desired, especially in short labels and feature callouts.
The overall tone is contemporary and tech-forward, combining a streamlined, industrial clarity with friendly rounded edges. It feels modern and synthetic rather than humanist, suggesting interface design, sci‑fi branding, and product-driven aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, futuristic sans with a distinctive superelliptic construction—prioritizing a consistent modular system, strong silhouette recognition, and a polished “tech” character for contemporary branding and interface contexts.
Distinctive superellipse ‘O’/‘0’ shapes and rounded-rect counters give the face a strong “square-rounded” signature. The spacing and wide stance emphasize horizontality, while the rounded corners prevent the geometry from feeling harsh. Diagonal forms (like V/W/X/Y) appear clean and angular, contrasting nicely with the softened terminals elsewhere.
