This typeface uses a geometric, superellipse-driven construction: rounds read as rounded rectangles, with softly squared curves and consistently smoothed corners. Strokes are largely monolinear, with clean terminals and a steady, even texture in both caps and lowercase. Proportions feel rational and compact, with generous apertures and counters that stay open in text. Figures follow the same squarish-round logic, creating a cohesive, UI-like rhythm across letters and numerals.
It performs well in interface and product contexts where clarity and a contemporary geometric feel are desired, such as dashboards, apps, and wayfinding systems. The distinctive squarish-round forms also make it suitable for brand systems, packaging, and headlines that want a clean, modern identity without sharp severity.
The overall tone is modern and practical with a subtly playful friendliness coming from the rounded-rectangle curves. It feels orderly and engineered rather than expressive, leaning toward a contemporary, tech-forward voice while remaining approachable.
The design appears intended to blend functional readability with a recognizable superelliptic silhouette, creating a neutral sans that still has a clear, branded personality. Its consistent curvature and controlled geometry suggest an aim for contemporary digital use and dependable typographic texture in text and display.
Circular forms such as O/C/G and 0 lean distinctly toward a squircle silhouette, which becomes the defining visual signature. Corners and joins are kept smooth and controlled, producing a tidy word shape and consistent spacing in running text.
