A sturdy sans with a squared, superellipse construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and terminals rather than perfect circles. Strokes are even and dense, with compact counters and a slightly condensed feel in many forms, creating a tight, efficient rhythm. Uppercase shapes are broad and stable, while lowercase is straightforward and open in structure, with mostly horizontal terminals and minimal modulation. Numerals follow the same blocky, rounded-corner logic, reading clearly at display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, and promotional graphics where a compact, robust sans can hold its shape. The clear, blocky forms also fit UI labels and navigational text at larger sizes, especially in contexts that benefit from a contemporary, engineered look.
The overall tone is modern and pragmatic, combining a friendly softness from the rounded corners with a confident, no-nonsense presence. It feels contemporary and engineered—more functional than expressive—yet approachable enough for consumer-facing design.
This design appears intended to deliver a modern geometric voice with softened edges—maximizing impact and clarity while maintaining an approachable feel. The superellipse geometry suggests a focus on consistency and a tech-leaning, product-oriented aesthetic.
Round letters like C, G, O, and Q show the strongest superellipse influence, with flattened sides and softened corners that keep the silhouette compact. Diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Y are crisp and give the face some energy without breaking its solid, rectangular skeleton.
