A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms, with smooth corners and largely even stroke thickness. The shapes feel compact and controlled, with straight verticals and horizontals softened by generous radii, producing an overall squarish-yet-rounded skeleton. Counters tend to be open and simply drawn, and the lowercase shows straightforward, single-storey constructions where visible. Terminals are clean and minimally treated, keeping the texture consistent across the alphabet and numerals.
Well suited to interface typography, dashboards, labels, and other information-forward settings where clean shapes and consistent rhythm help legibility. It also fits contemporary branding and packaging that benefits from a geometric, rounded voice, and can scale to signage where its simplified forms stay clear at a distance.
The tone is modern and functional with a subtly friendly edge from the rounded geometry. It reads as contemporary and tech-adjacent rather than expressive, projecting clarity, order, and approachability.
The font appears designed to deliver a pragmatic, modern sans with softened geometry—combining the precision of straight-sided forms with rounded corners for a more approachable, product-oriented look.
The design maintains a steady rhythm in text, with rounded joins and corners creating a smooth, uniform color on the page. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic and sit comfortably alongside the letters, reinforcing the cohesive, system-like feel.
