A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like forms, with softly squared curves and consistent stroke endings. Strokes maintain an even weight and rely on right angles and broad radii rather than circles, giving bowls and corners a “squared-off” smoothness. Proportions are compact with a tidy rhythm; counters are generally open and rectangular, and diagonals (as in K, V, W, X, Y) are clean and straight. The numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with angular, segmented constructions that keep curves controlled and corners softened.
This font suits UI labeling, dashboards, and product interfaces where a compact, clean geometry helps maintain clarity. It also works well for tech-forward branding, wayfinding, and short headlines that benefit from its distinctive rounded-rect construction. For longer passages it will read most comfortably at moderate sizes with generous spacing.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered, with a subtle sci‑fi and interface aesthetic. Its rounded corners keep it approachable, while the strict geometry and narrow build read as efficient and technical rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical sans, balancing strict, modular structure with softened corners for a friendly, contemporary feel. It prioritizes a cohesive, system-like alphabet that looks consistent across letters and figures.
Several glyphs emphasize modular construction: circular letters like O/Q are squarer than typical, E/F use crisp horizontal terminals, and the lowercase shows single-storey forms with simplified joins. The design leans on consistent corner radii and straight segments, producing a distinctive “rounded-square” texture in text while staying clear at display sizes.
