A geometric sans with softly squared, superellipse-like curves and an even, monoline stroke. Round letters such as C, O, and G feel drawn from rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles, giving the design a subtly squarish rhythm. Terminals are mostly blunt and crisp, with smooth joins and open counters; bowls and arcs read cleanly at display sizes. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, a compact x-height relative to the capitals, and straightforward, unembellished forms throughout.
This font suits interface and product typography where clarity and a modern tone are needed, as well as signage and wayfinding that benefit from open forms and consistent stroke weight. It also works for contemporary branding systems, presentation graphics, and short-to-medium passages of text where a clean geometric voice is desired.
The overall tone is contemporary and tidy, balancing a slightly technical, engineered feel with approachable rounded shapes. Its restrained geometry and consistent stroke make it feel neutral and efficient, while the softened corners keep it from reading harsh or overly industrial.
The design intent appears to be a neutral, contemporary sans built on rounded-rectangle geometry—aiming for high legibility, consistent rhythm, and a distinctly modern silhouette without decorative features.
Spacing appears generous and even in the sample text, supporting clear word shapes and calm texture. Numerals are simple and legible with the same rounded-rect geometry, and punctuation (such as the apostrophe and colon) follows the same clean, minimal approach.
