A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse logic, with smooth curves meeting straight stems through softened corners. Strokes read essentially monolinear, and the drawing favors open counters and clear, uncluttered joins. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) feel squarish and controlled rather than circular, while horizontals and terminals typically end bluntly with gentle rounding. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, simple i/j dots, and generally straightforward construction that keeps rhythm even and spacing calm.
This design suits interface copy, product and tech branding, labeling systems, and clean wayfinding where a modern geometric voice is wanted without sharp corners. It also works well for short headlines and medium-length text blocks that benefit from open counters and tidy, even rhythm.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, with a slightly soft edge that keeps it approachable. Its rounded geometry lends a friendly, digital feel—more UI/product than editorial—while staying restrained and neutral.
The font appears intended to translate superelliptical, screen-native geometry into a practical sans for contemporary communication. Its softened corners and open construction aim for clarity and approachability while maintaining a disciplined, engineered structure.
Figures are simple and legible with consistent curvature and corner treatment, matching the alphabet’s rounded-rectangular theme. The sample text shows steady texture in paragraphs and a clear hierarchy potential for headings thanks to the broad, open forms.
