A compact sans with squared, superelliptical construction and consistently rounded corners. Strokes maintain an even thickness throughout, producing clean, solid silhouettes with minimal modulation. Curves on letters like C, G, O, and S feel like rounded rectangles rather than true circles, while verticals and horizontals remain straight and firm. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are controlled, giving the overall rhythm a dense, efficient texture in text.
Well-suited to interface typography, wayfinding, and product labeling where compact, sturdy letterforms help conserve space while staying legible. It also works effectively for headlines and short blocks of copy that benefit from a contemporary, engineered aesthetic.
The tone is modern and pragmatic, with an engineered, no-nonsense feel. Its rounded corners soften the otherwise strict geometry, balancing friendliness with a distinctly technical, contemporary voice. The overall impression is confident and direct rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to provide a space-efficient, highly consistent geometric sans for modern applications. Its superelliptical rounds and softened corners suggest a goal of pairing system-like clarity with a touch of approachability, making it adaptable across digital and print contexts.
Forms lean on geometric consistency across the set, and the numerals follow the same squared-round logic for a uniform system look. The strong, compact shapes create clear word images, though the dense counters suggest it will feel most comfortable with adequate size or line spacing in longer passages.
