A geometric sans built from squared-round (superellipse-like) forms with a consistent, generous corner radius and sturdy, even stroke weight. Curves resolve into rounded rectangles, giving bowls and counters a compact, boxy feel, while diagonals (as in A, K, V, W, X, Y) stay crisp and planar. Terminals are typically flat and squared-off, and the overall proportions lean horizontal, with broad letterforms and stable, rectangular spacing. Numerals follow the same modular logic, favoring squared bowls and straight segments for a uniform, mechanical rhythm.
This font is well-suited to headlines, branding, and logo work where a geometric, contemporary voice is desirable. It also fits interface and product displays, motion graphics, and packaging that benefits from a clean, modular feel and strong silhouette clarity at larger sizes.
The tone is modern and engineered, with a distinctly tech-forward, synthetic character. Its rounded corners soften the geometry just enough to feel approachable, but the overall impression remains assertive, streamlined, and display-oriented.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive alphabet that reads as modern and functional. By balancing hard, straight structure with softened corners, it aims for a futuristic, industrial look that remains friendly and legible in short bursts of text.
Distinctive superelliptical bowls create a strong family resemblance across O/Q/0 and the rounded parts of B/P/R. The lowercase maintains the same squared-round construction, producing a consistent texture in words, while the dense, blocky shapes create a high visual presence even at moderate sizes.
