A clean geometric sans with softly rounded corners and largely uniform stroke weight. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse logic, giving bowls and counters a squarish roundness rather than true circles. Terminals are straight and crisp, and the overall construction favors simple, steady geometry with minimal modulation. Spacing and proportions feel even and functional, producing a clear rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase across text sizes.
Works well for UI and product typography where clarity, consistency, and a contemporary feel are needed. Its rounded geometry also suits brand systems and packaging that want a clean, approachable voice. In print and editorial settings it can serve comfortably for headings and short-to-medium passages where a modern, neutral sans is desired.
The tone is modern and practical with a gentle friendliness from the rounded geometry. It reads as contemporary and slightly tech-oriented—orderly and objective, but not cold—making it well suited to interfaces and straightforward communication.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable, contemporary sans built on superellipse-like forms, balancing geometric rigor with softened corners for a more approachable texture. It prioritizes legibility and consistency across mixed-case text while maintaining a distinctive rounded-rectangular silhouette in its curves.
Round letters like O/Q and numerals such as 0/8 show the signature squarish rounding, while diagonals (e.g., in A, V, W, X) stay sharp and direct. The lowercase includes single-storey forms (notably a and g) that reinforce the geometric, simplified voice and keep word shapes uncluttered.
