This typeface is a geometric sans with soft, superelliptical curves and subtly squared rounds, creating an overall “rounded-rectangle” construction in bowls and counters. Strokes are even and monolinear, with crisp terminals and minimal modulation. Proportions feel balanced and slightly compact, with consistent spacing and a steady texture in paragraphs. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, a short, straight-shouldered r, and a t with a compact crossbar; capitals are clean and structured with broad curves in C/G/O and straightforward diagonals in A/V/W.
It works well for UI and product typography, wayfinding and signage, and concise editorial settings where a clean, contemporary texture is needed. The smooth geometry also suits modern brand systems, packaging, and presentation graphics, especially when a neutral sans with a gentle, approachable edge is preferred.
The overall tone is contemporary and understated, with a friendly smoothness from the rounded geometry. It reads as practical and system-minded rather than expressive, suitable for interfaces and utilitarian branding where clarity and calm neutrality are desired.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern geometric voice with softened corners for approachability, balancing strict construction with comfortable readability. Its consistent stroke and compact forms suggest an emphasis on dependable performance across a range of sizes and layout densities.
Rounded shaping is most evident in circular letters (O, C, G, e, o) where curves appear gently squared rather than perfectly circular, reinforcing a soft-tech aesthetic. Numerals are simple and functional, matching the letterforms’ even stroke and compact footprint.
