A monolinear sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) construction and softened corners throughout. Curves resolve into squarish bowls and counters, giving letters like O, Q, and 0 a rounded-square silhouette rather than a perfect circle. Terminals are clean and mostly horizontal/vertical, joins are crisp, and overall proportions feel compact and orderly with open apertures for clear word shapes. Numerals follow the same geometry, with evenly weighted strokes and simple, functional forms.
Well-suited to interface typography, product and brand systems, and wayfinding where a clean, controlled geometry helps maintain clarity. The open shapes and steady texture also make it a practical choice for presentations, dashboards, and general-purpose editorial text at comfortable sizes.
The overall tone is calm, contemporary, and approachable, balancing a technical, engineered feel with gentle rounding that keeps it from feeling harsh. Its consistent rhythm and tidy shapes read as pragmatic and straightforward, with a subtle friendliness.
The design appears intended to provide a neutral workhorse sans with a distinctive superelliptic backbone—prioritizing clarity and consistency while adding a softly geometric character that feels contemporary and system-friendly.
The superellipse-driven curves create a distinct “soft-square” personality that stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. The lowercase shows simple, uncluttered construction (single-storey shapes where applicable) that supports legibility in continuous text while retaining a geometric flavor.
