A clean sans serif with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are monolinear and evenly weighted, with smooth curves and straight segments that meet in gentle transitions rather than sharp joins. Counters are open and fairly generous, giving the face clear internal shapes and steady spacing. Capitals read straightforward and architectural, while the lowercase maintains simple, single-storey forms (notably the “a” and “g”) with a compact, efficient footprint and tidy terminals.
This font fits UI and app typography, dashboards, and settings where stable rhythm and clear counters aid legibility. Its rounded geometric voice also works for contemporary branding, packaging, and editorial subheads that want a friendly, tech-adjacent tone. The straightforward uppercase and clean numerals make it a strong option for signage, labels, and presentation decks.
The overall tone is modern and approachable—precise enough for utilitarian interfaces, but softened by rounded geometry that keeps it from feeling clinical. It communicates clarity and calm without drawing attention to itself, making it well-suited to contemporary, product-oriented design.
The design appears intended as a versatile, modern workhorse sans built around superelliptical forms—aiming for clarity and consistency while adding a subtle friendliness through rounded corners and smooth transitions. It prioritizes predictable shapes and an orderly texture for everyday reading and interface use.
The numerals follow the same rounded, geometric logic and appear designed for quick recognition, with clear differentiation between curved and straight-sided forms. Round letters like O/C/Q show superelliptical shaping rather than perfect circles, reinforcing a cohesive, system-like feel across the set.
