A compact sans with superellipse construction: round letters are drawn as rounded rectangles with softly squared curves rather than perfect circles. Strokes are largely monolinear with modest contrast and a consistent, engineered rhythm. Terminals are blunt and clean, with rounded joins that keep counters smooth; bowls and shoulders stay tight, giving the alphabet a slightly condensed, space-efficient feel. Uppercase forms are tall and straight-sided, while lowercase shows simple, functional shapes and clear punctuation; numerals follow the same squared-round logic with sturdy verticals.
Works well for interface typography, wayfinding, and product/tech branding where clarity and a modern, geometric voice are needed. The compact proportions and sturdy numerals also suit dashboards, tables, and short headlines, while the even rhythm keeps paragraphs readable at moderate sizes.
The overall tone feels contemporary and pragmatic, with a mildly industrial, system-like flavor. Its squared-round geometry reads precise and technical without becoming cold, keeping a friendly softness at the corners.
Likely intended as a contemporary geometric workhorse that blends efficiency with softness—using rounded-rectangle forms to create a distinctive identity while staying legible and straightforward in practical settings.
Distinctive features include the rounded-rectangle “O/0” structure, the tall, narrow uppercase rhythm, and generally open, readable counters that hold up in continuous text. The design maintains consistent curvature across letters, numbers, and punctuation, reinforcing a cohesive, modular look.
