A monoline sans with rounded terminals and softly squared curves, built from simple geometric strokes. The forms favor open apertures and gently flattened arcs, giving bowls and shoulders a slightly “squircular” feel. Uppercase construction is clean and airy, while lowercase keeps a tall x-height with streamlined ascenders and descenders. Several glyphs show subtle modular breaks and simplified joins (notably in diagonals and crossings), creating a distinctive, engineered rhythm without adding decoration.
Well-suited to contemporary interfaces, product branding, and tech-oriented identities where a clean but distinctive sans is needed. It performs especially well for headlines, short UI labels, and packaging or editorial display where the unusual constructions can be appreciated without compromising clarity.
The overall tone reads modern and tech-forward, with a warm, approachable edge created by rounded ends and open counters. Its simplified, slightly unconventional constructions add a mild sci‑fi and experimental flavor while remaining calm and legible at display sizes.
Likely intended to provide a modern, geometric sans voice that feels engineered and forward-looking, while staying friendly through rounded terminals and open, simplified shapes. The design appears aimed at distinctiveness via modular construction rather than weight contrast or ornament.
The design balances geometric clarity with idiosyncratic letter shaping, producing a recognizable texture in words. Numerals follow the same rounded, minimal logic, with open, curved strokes that keep the set visually consistent with the alphabet.
