A crisp, geometric sans with a distinctly rectilinear construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and corners rather than perfect circles. Strokes are even and consistent, with straight verticals and horizontals dominating the texture and only gently rounded transitions at joins and terminals. The character set shows generous sidebearings and a stable rhythm, with clear, open counters in letters like c, e, and s, and a simple, unembellished treatment of terminals throughout. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect form language, producing smooth, highly regular silhouettes across the set.
This font suits interfaces and information-heavy layouts where uniform spacing and predictable shapes help scanning—such as UI labels, settings screens, dashboards, and tabular or data-rich readouts. It also performs well for technical documentation, diagrams, and captions that benefit from a neat, consistent typographic color.
The overall tone is pragmatic and contemporary, projecting a no-nonsense, engineered feel. Its rounded corners soften the strict geometry, keeping the voice friendly while still reading as precise and systematic.
The design appears aimed at a disciplined, system-friendly sans that favors consistency and legibility over expressive detailing. Its rounded-rectangle geometry suggests an intention to feel modern and approachable while remaining firmly utilitarian for structured layouts.
The superelliptical rounding gives round letters a slightly squared profile, which creates a distinctive, orderly texture in words and a strong grid-like consistency in running text. Uppercase forms appear straightforward and signage-ready, while lowercase maintains a clear, functional structure with minimal stylistic quirks.
