A clean, monoline sans with softly squared, superellipse-like curves and rounded terminals. The stroke weight stays even, with smooth joins and a restrained, contemporary geometry that avoids sharp corners. Counters are open and circular-to-oval, and the proportions feel balanced and steady, supporting clear word shapes in running text. Numerals follow the same calm, rounded construction, with simple forms and consistent stroke behavior.
Well-suited to interface typography, product and SaaS branding, and general-purpose communication where clarity and a contemporary feel are needed. The even color and open forms also make it a solid choice for short editorial passages, informational layouts, and straightforward signage.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, combining technical neatness with gentle softness. Its rounded geometry reads friendly and unobtrusive rather than overtly stylized, making it feel dependable and contemporary.
The design appears intended as a versatile, neutral workhorse sans that differentiates itself through softly squared curves and rounded details. It aims to remain highly legible while adding a subtle geometric personality that feels current and approachable.
Round punctuation and dots (such as on i/j) reinforce the soft geometric theme. Diagonals and junctions (seen in letters like K, V, W, X, Y) are crisp but never sharp, maintaining a consistent, polished rhythm across the set.
