A heavy, monoline sans with superelliptical construction: curves read as rounded-rectangle arcs rather than perfect circles, and corners are consistently softened. Strokes are uniform and solid, with compact apertures and sturdy terminals that keep shapes feeling dense and highly legible at large and medium sizes. Uppercase forms are broad and stable (notably the squared-off bowls and counters in B, D, O, and Q), while lowercase maintains straightforward, single-storey a and g with simple, pragmatic joins. Figures are simple and vertical, with a clear, no-nonsense rhythm.
Well-suited for headlines, short passages, and display typography where a strong, modern voice is needed. The rounded geometry and compact rhythm make it effective for UI labels, product branding, and wayfinding/signage, where clarity and a friendly presence are both important.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a friendly softness from the rounded geometry with an assertive, confident weight. It suggests practical modernity—clean, direct, and slightly tech-leaning—without feeling overly clinical.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric sans with a distinctive superelliptical skeleton—softened and approachable, yet bold enough to anchor interfaces and brand systems with clear, stable letterforms.
Counters and apertures tend toward the narrow side, giving the face a compact, punchy color in text. The superelliptical curves create a distinctive “soft-square” personality, especially visible in round letters and numerals, and the punctuation/diacritics shown (like the i/j dots) follow the same squared-rounded logic for consistency.
