A rounded, monoline sans with superellipse-driven bowls and softly squared counters. Strokes stay even and light, with rounded terminals throughout and minimal modulation. Curves are broad and open, while straights are gently softened, creating a smooth rhythm and generous interior space. Uppercase forms are clean and slightly compact in their joins, and lowercase shapes keep a simple, uncluttered construction with a single-storey "a" and open apertures.
It works well for short-to-medium text where a friendly, modern tone is desired, such as UI labels, app onboarding, product packaging, and editorial callouts. The wide, open forms also make it suitable for headlines and display settings where rounded geometry can become a key part of the visual identity.
The overall tone feels approachable and informal, with a playful softness that reads as contemporary rather than technical. Its rounded-rectangle geometry gives it a calm, friendly voice that suits lighthearted or human-centered messaging.
The design appears intended to combine geometric clarity with softened, rounded-rectangle forms to create a contemporary sans that feels warm and accessible. It prioritizes an even, smooth texture and simple constructions for easy, friendly communication.
Figures follow the same rounded, superelliptical logic as the letters, maintaining consistency across text and numerals. The sample text shows clear word shapes and a relaxed texture, with letterforms that stay distinct even with the softened corners.
