A geometric sans built from squared, superellipse-like contours with generously rounded corners and largely uniform stroke thickness. Curves resolve into rounded rectangles rather than circles, giving counters and bowls a boxy, engineered feel. Terminals are blunt and flat, joins are clean, and diagonals appear sparingly and with a restrained angle, producing a modular rhythm. Proportions run broad with ample interior space, and the overall color is solid and even in text.
Best suited to headlines, short paragraphs, and display settings where its broad, modular shapes can remain crisp and recognizable. It works especially well for tech branding, UI-style graphics, wayfinding, packaging, and bold editorial callouts that benefit from a structured, engineered aesthetic.
The tone is contemporary and technical, evoking interface lettering, hardware labels, and sci‑fi signage. Its rounded-square geometry reads confident and robust, with a functional, no-nonsense character rather than a friendly or calligraphic one.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a legible, modern sans with strong visual identity. It prioritizes uniformity, clarity, and a distinctive squared-round motif to create an efficient, contemporary voice for display and labeling contexts.
Distinctive squared counters in letters like O/D/Q and similarly shaped numerals create strong stylistic cohesion. The lowercase maintains the same constructed logic as the caps, with simplified forms and minimal modulation, helping mixed-case settings feel consistent and systematic.
