A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) forms with monoline strokes and softly squared corners. Curves resolve into flat terminals and broad, even radii, producing a smooth, engineered silhouette rather than purely circular bowls. Proportions feel spacious and horizontally open, with compact apertures and a consistent, modular rhythm across letters and figures. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey constructions and uncluttered joins, while the numerals echo the same rounded-rect geometry for a uniform set.
Well-suited to UI labels, dashboards, and product interfaces where a tidy, modern texture is desirable. It also fits tech-forward branding, posters, and packaging that benefit from a geometric, rounded-rect aesthetic, and can work for signage or wayfinding when a clean, engineered voice is needed.
The overall tone is contemporary and technical, with a gentle friendliness from the rounded corners. It reads as futuristic and interface-oriented—more “designed object” than humanist—projecting precision, control, and modernity without feeling sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to translate superellipse geometry into a practical sans for contemporary digital contexts, emphasizing consistent radii, even stroke color, and a sleek, modular rhythm. Its letterforms prioritize a distinctive rounded-rectangle identity while staying straightforward and legible for display and short text.
The square-rounded logic is especially evident in counters and bowls, which stay rectilinear in feel even on traditionally round characters. Straight strokes and corners dominate the texture, giving text a crisp, architectural cadence that remains smooth at larger sizes.
