A geometric sans built from squared, superelliptical forms with generously rounded corners and a consistent, even stroke. Curves tend to resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and counters, producing a compact, engineered silhouette. Terminals are largely flat and horizontal/vertical, joins are crisp, and spacing reads steady and controlled. Numerals and lowercase follow the same squared-round logic, with simplified, sturdy shapes optimized for clarity at display and UI-like sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, logos, and branding systems that want a modern, tech-forward voice. Its squared-round geometry also makes it a strong option for signage, packaging, and interface-style graphics where clear, compact letterforms and a controlled rhythm are beneficial.
The overall tone feels technical and utilitarian, with a contemporary, machine-made calm. Its rounded corners soften the geometry, balancing a friendly approachability with a decisive, modern edge.
The font appears designed to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, highly legible sans that reads contemporary and engineered. It aims for a distinctive, system-like look that stays approachable through softened corners while maintaining strong presence.
The design favors straight-sided arcs and rectangular counters over fully circular construction, giving it a distinctive “squircle” rhythm in letters like C, O, Q, and in rounded bowls across the lowercase. The heavier presence and tight internal shapes suggest it will project strongly on light backgrounds and in high-contrast layouts.
