A geometric sans with a squared, superellipse construction: bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles, and most curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles. Strokes are monoline with low contrast and clean, engineered terminals, producing a crisp, modular rhythm. Proportions feel compact and slightly condensed in impression due to wide verticals and tight internal shaping, while open apertures and generous counters keep the texture readable. Numerals follow the same squared-rounded logic, with sturdy, blocky silhouettes that align well in tabular-like settings.
It suits user interfaces, dashboards, and device displays where clear, modular letterforms help maintain legibility at small-to-medium sizes. The sturdy shapes also work well for wayfinding, packaging, product labeling, and short headlines that benefit from a technical, engineered voice. In longer text it maintains a steady, even color, especially when line spacing is not too tight.
The overall tone is technical and purpose-driven, with a subtle retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of industrial labeling and digital-era interface typography. Its rounded-square geometry feels modern and friendly enough to avoid harshness, while still projecting precision and control.
The font appears designed to deliver a consistent, system-like aesthetic built from rounded-rectangular geometry, prioritizing clarity and repeatable shapes across the character set. The simplified forms suggest an intention to feel contemporary and functional, with a controlled, industrial character that remains approachable through softened corners.
The design emphasizes consistent corner radii and straight-sided curves, creating a cohesive “rounded-rectangle” motif across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The lowercase includes single-storey forms and simplified joins that reinforce a functional, contemporary look.
