A rounded, geometric sans with a superellipse construction: straight stems and bowls are squared off then eased with generous corner radii, producing a sturdy, soft-rectilinear silhouette. Strokes are monoline and heavy, with compact inner counters that stay open due to large apertures and simplified joins. Curves tend toward rounded-rectangle shapes rather than perfect circles, and terminals are consistently softened, giving letters a calm, engineered rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of text where its thick, rounded forms deliver strong presence and high legibility. It fits well in branding systems, app and product UI labels, packaging, and wayfinding or signage where a friendly but structured voice is desired.
The overall tone is contemporary and friendly, combining a utilitarian, signage-like solidity with soft corners that feel welcoming rather than severe. Its shapes read as tech-adjacent and product-oriented, with a slightly playful warmth that keeps it from feeling purely industrial.
The design appears intended to merge geometric rigor with softened corners, creating a robust sans that feels contemporary, approachable, and easy to scan. The consistent superellipse logic suggests a focus on systematized shapes that reproduce reliably across digital and print contexts.
Lowercase forms are simple and robust, with single-storey constructions and minimal detailing, reinforcing clarity at display sizes. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with blocky proportions and smooth curves that match the letterforms for consistent word-and-figure color.
