A compact, monoline sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened terminals throughout. Strokes maintain an even weight with minimal modulation, and counters are simple and open, giving the design a sturdy, engineered feel. Round letters like C, G, O, and Q read as superelliptical shapes, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) use gently radiused corners rather than sharp joints. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with consistent curves and pragmatic spacing that keeps text blocks dense and orderly.
Works well for space-efficient headlines, labels, and UI or app typography where a compact footprint and clear shapes are valuable. Its sturdy geometry and rounded corners also suit wayfinding, packaging, and poster titling that needs to feel modern without becoming harsh.
The tone is modern and approachable, combining a technical, signage-like clarity with friendly rounded corners. It feels contemporary and functional rather than expressive, lending a calm, dependable character to headings and short text.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a consistent superelliptical geometry, emphasizing clarity and uniform texture in display and short text. Rounded corners and even strokes suggest an aim for legibility and a friendly, contemporary finish in practical settings.
Distinctive details include a straightforward, rounded-shoulder lowercase with a single-storey ‘g’, compact bowls on ‘b/p/q’, and numerals that match the same softened-rectilinear logic. The dot on ‘i’ is a clean round point, and punctuation appears plain and workmanlike, supporting a no-nonsense overall voice.
