A compact, monoline sans with rounded-rectangle construction that keeps curves controlled and corners softly radiused. Strokes are even and straight segments dominate, with bowls and counters built from squarish superelliptic curves rather than pure circles. The overall fit is tight with short-looking ascenders/descenders, and many forms feel vertically emphasized. Details like the squared terminals, simple joins, and consistent radiusing create a steady, engineered rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Works well for user interfaces, dashboards, labeling, and wayfinding where compact spacing and clear, steady letterforms help maintain legibility. Its controlled geometry also suits contemporary branding and packaging, especially when a clean, engineered feel is desired in headlines and short text.
The tone reads modern and practical, with a slightly friendly edge coming from the rounded corners. It feels more functional than expressive—clean and technical—suited to interfaces and systems where clarity and restraint matter.
Likely designed to provide a neutral, space-efficient sans that stays approachable through rounded geometry while maintaining a systematic, consistent build. The emphasis appears to be on clarity, consistency, and a contemporary, tech-adjacent voice rather than stylistic flair.
Uppercase forms are simplified and sturdy, while lowercase retains a straightforward, almost UI-oriented construction. Numerals are clear and compact; the "0" is a rounded rectangle and the "1" is a plain vertical with minimal ornamentation, reinforcing the no-nonsense aesthetic. Diagonals (e.g., in V/W/X/Y) remain crisp but softened by the overall corner treatment.
