A rounded, geometric sans with superelliptical curves and softly squared terminals. Strokes appear monolinear, with smooth joins and a consistent, even texture across words. Round letters (O, C, G, e, o) lean toward rounded-rectangle construction rather than perfect circles, while straight-sided forms (H, N, M, n, m) keep a crisp, stable rhythm. Counters are generous and apertures are notably open in characters like e, c, S, and a, supporting clarity at text sizes. Numerals are simple and readable, matching the same rounded-corner logic and steady stroke behavior as the letters.
This font suits interface and product design where clarity and a calm, contemporary voice are needed, including dashboards, settings screens, and web body text. Its rounded geometry also works well for brand systems, packaging, and wayfinding where a friendly modern impression is desired without sacrificing legibility.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, combining a clean UI-like neutrality with softened edges that keep it from feeling harsh. Its rounded geometry suggests friendliness and accessibility while maintaining a measured, engineered discipline suitable for systematic design.
The design appears intended to deliver a highly legible, modern sans built on rounded-rectangle geometry, balancing functional readability with a soft, welcoming finish. It aims for consistent rhythm and dependable forms that scale well from UI sizes to larger headings.
Capitals sit with a straightforward, utilitarian stance and modest curvature, while lowercase forms maintain a tidy, rational structure with minimal calligraphic influence. The family’s rounded terminals and superelliptical bowls create a cohesive visual signature that stays consistent across both display and paragraph samples.
