A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms, with squared-off bowls and consistently softened corners. Strokes are even and low-contrast, producing a crisp, engineered texture. Many curves resolve into straight segments with radiused joins, and counters tend to be rectangular or squarish rather than purely circular. Proportions read as open and horizontally generous, with simple terminals and a tidy, modular rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Works well for interface typography, product UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding where a clean, contemporary voice is needed. Its distinctive squared-rounded shapes also suit tech branding and short headlines, especially when you want a futuristic but readable geometric sans.
The overall tone feels modern and technical, with a subtle sci-fi flavor driven by the squared curves and rounded corners. It communicates precision and control rather than warmth, giving text a sleek, device-interface character.
The design appears intended to merge strict, rectilinear structure with softened corners for a friendly-but-technical look. By standardizing curves into rounded-rectangle geometry and keeping contrast minimal, it aims for consistent on-screen clarity and a recognizable contemporary voice.
Capitals are constructed with clean, orthogonal geometry, while diagonals (e.g., in V, W, X, Y) stay sharp and confident against the softened curves elsewhere. The numeral set follows the same rounded-rect logic, keeping forms legible and consistent in UI-like contexts.
