A geometric sans with superellipse-like round forms and a strong, even stroke. Corners are broadly rounded and curves feel squared-off rather than purely circular, creating a sturdy, compact silhouette. Apertures are generally tight and counters are simple and generous enough for clarity at display sizes. Terminals are mostly blunt and vertical/horizontal joins are clean, giving the design a controlled rhythm with minimal gesture.
Performs best in headlines, logos, and short-form copy where its compact, rounded geometry can project presence without looking harsh. It also suits UI labels, navigation, and product/packaging typography when a solid, contemporary sans is needed for clear hierarchy.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, with a confident, utilitarian clarity. The rounded-rectangle geometry adds friendliness while maintaining a contemporary, tech-leaning neutrality suited to brands that want to feel current without becoming playful.
Designed to deliver a robust geometric voice with softened corners, balancing legibility and a distinctive superellipse character. The intent appears to be a contemporary all-purpose sans that feels friendly and modern while staying controlled and highly repeatable across letters and numbers.
Caps read as blocky and stable, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike texture with minimal modulation. Numerals follow the same compact geometry and weight, supporting consistent emphasis in UI or headline contexts.
