A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with uniform stroke weight and soft, consistently radiused corners. Curves are squared-off rather than circular, giving counters and bowls a rectangular feel (notably in O, D, P, and b/o). Terminals are clean and blunt, joins are crisp, and spacing reads even and deliberate, producing a strong, blocky rhythm. Numerals echo the same rounded-rect geometry, with simplified, open shapes and a slashed zero.
Best suited to display roles where its geometric, rounded-rect personality can lead: brand marks, product names, packaging, and headline systems. It also works well for interface labels, dashboards, and signage where sturdy shapes and clear character separation (including the slashed zero) are beneficial.
The overall tone is contemporary and engineered, with a sleek, device-like cleanliness that feels at home in tech and product environments. Its squared-rounded construction adds a sporty, sci‑fi edge while staying orderly and readable, projecting confidence and efficiency rather than warmth or tradition.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a coherent, contemporary sans with a strong, systematic voice. By keeping strokes even and corners consistently softened, it aims to feel modern and technical while retaining clarity at display and UI-oriented sizes.
Distinctive details include a squared, rounded-corner O and Q (with a compact tail), an angular A, and an open, horizontal-bar style e that reinforces the techno character. The slashed zero is prominent and highly functional for contexts where character differentiation matters.
