A very thin, monoline sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse geometry. Strokes maintain a consistent weight with softly radiused corners, producing boxy curves in O/C/G and similarly squared bowls in B/D/P/R. Proportions are notably extended horizontally, while the lowercase shows a tall x-height and long, even horizontals that emphasize a steady, engineered rhythm. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, with occasional rounded hooks and simplified joins that keep forms crisp and uncluttered; numerals follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic with open, airy interiors.
Best suited for display typography where its extended proportions and rounded-rectilinear curves can read clearly—such as headlines, posters, technology branding, product marks, and interface titles. It can also work for short captions or navigation labels in clean layouts, especially when ample size and contrast are available.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical, with a calm, minimalist presence. Its rounded-square construction suggests digital interfaces, industrial design, and sci‑fi titling, while the hairline weight keeps the voice refined and unobtrusive.
The design appears intended to translate superellipse-based forms into a streamlined, contemporary sans with a distinctly digital silhouette. By combining a hairline monoline stroke with rounded-square counters and wide spacing, it aims for a precise, modern display voice with strong stylistic cohesion.
The design leans on modular repetition—similar curves and corner radii recur across glyphs—creating strong visual consistency in headings. The wide set and open counters give it a spacious texture, though the very light strokes imply best performance at larger sizes or in high-contrast situations.
