A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse logic, with broad, even strokes and systematically softened corners. Curves resolve into squared-off bowls and terminals, giving letters a technical, machined feel rather than a purely circular one. Counters tend to be compact and rectangular (notably in O, D, P, a, o), and joints are clean with minimal modulation. Diagonals in forms like V, W, X, Y and the angled leg of R are sturdy and simplified, while overall spacing reads generous enough to keep dense shapes legible at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where its geometric, squared-rounded construction can read clearly: headlines, branding systems, logotypes, posters, and packaging. The sturdy letterforms also lend themselves well to UI-style graphics, labels, and wayfinding where a modern technical voice is desired.
The tone is modern and engineered, suggesting interfaces, hardware, and contemporary sports or motorsport aesthetics. Its rounded corners add approachability, but the squarish curves and tight apertures keep it assertive and purposeful. The overall impression is sleek, synthetic, and forward-looking.
The design intent appears to be a contemporary geometric workhorse with a distinctive superelliptical skeleton—combining softened corners with squared curves to communicate technology and precision without feeling sharp or hostile. It aims for high-impact readability in short bursts of text and graphic-forward typography.
Uppercase forms are especially uniform and structural, while lowercase keeps the same squared-rounded construction for consistency. Numerals appear designed for quick recognition, with the same rounded-rectangle counters and strong horizontal/vertical emphasis that suits signage and UI-like settings.
