A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with squared proportions softened by generous corner radii. Strokes are uniform and low in contrast, producing a sturdy, engineered texture. Counters tend toward rectangular/oval hybrids, and many joins resolve into crisp right angles rather than curved transitions, giving the design a compact, modular rhythm. Uppercase shapes feel broad and stable, while lowercase follows the same squared logic with simple terminals and a consistent vertical stance; punctuation and figures match the same blunt, rounded-corner geometry.
Well-suited to interface labels, navigation, and signage where a clear, blocky geometry helps characters separate quickly. It also works effectively for packaging, headlines, and short editorial display lines that benefit from a modern, engineered personality.
The overall tone is technical and industrial, evoking control panels, equipment labeling, and contemporary sci‑fi interfaces. Its squared, rounded construction reads confident and no-nonsense, with a slightly futuristic edge that stays practical rather than flashy.
The design appears intended to translate superelliptic, rounded-rect geometry into a practical sans for contemporary communication—balancing a futuristic, technical flavor with straightforward legibility and consistent, system-like construction.
Wide radii and flattened curves create a distinctive “soft square” silhouette across rounds like C/O/Q and bowls like B/P/R. The design maintains strong consistency across letters and numerals, which helps it hold together in dense settings and at medium-to-large sizes.
