A monoline sans with very thin strokes and a condensed overall stance. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse logic: bowls and counters look softly squared, with consistently rounded corners rather than true circular arcs. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm; diagonals are sharp but light, and joins stay restrained. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle geometry, with open, simplified forms that remain visually consistent with the letters.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairline strokes can remain clear—headlines, posters, and identity lockups. It also fits UI labels and interface accents when used with sufficient size/contrast, especially in sleek, minimal layouts. The distinctive rounded-rectangle geometry can add a modern, product-forward character to packaging and editorial display settings.
The tone is calm and understated, projecting a cool, contemporary sensibility. Its ultra-clean construction and softly squared rounds suggest a tech-oriented, architectural feel rather than a humanist one. The lightness gives it an elegant, almost skeletal presence that reads as refined and modern.
The design appears intended to deliver a highly minimal, contemporary sans with a distinctive superellipse foundation—softening a geometric structure without becoming playful. It prioritizes uniformity and a clean, technical texture, aiming for clarity and a modern, design-system-friendly presence in display and interface contexts.
The sample text shows generous internal spacing and open shapes that keep the texture from clumping despite the narrow build. Rounded-rectangular bowls (notably in characters with enclosed counters) and straight, minimal punctuation contribute to a uniform, grid-friendly appearance.
