A clean, monoline sans with subtly squared, superellipse-like curves that keep rounds feeling controlled rather than purely circular. Strokes are even and crisp, with open apertures and straightforward terminals that read clearly at text sizes. Uppercase forms look calm and geometric, while lowercase keeps simple constructions—single-storey a and g, a compact, rounded e, and a short, minimal ear on r—supporting an uncluttered texture. Numerals are similarly restrained and highly legible, with smooth, consistent curves and uncomplicated joins.
Works well for UI and web typography, product surfaces, and dashboards where consistent rhythm and clear counters matter. It also suits minimalist brand systems, captions, and editorial subheads that benefit from a clean, contemporary voice without calling attention to itself.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, balancing a technical, system-like clarity with softened corners that add warmth. It feels neutral and dependable rather than expressive, suited to interfaces and contemporary branding where clarity is the priority.
Likely designed to provide a versatile, highly legible sans with a geometric backbone and softened superellipse curves for a more friendly, modern feel. The emphasis appears to be on clarity, consistency, and neutrality across both display and text settings.
Round letters such as C, O, and G show a slightly squared curvature that gives the font a distinctive, structured rhythm in paragraphs. Spacing appears even and conservative, helping longer lines stay calm and readable.
