A geometric sans with squared, superellipse-derived bowls and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with clear horizontal and vertical emphasis and minimal contrast. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle forms rather than true circles, giving letters like O, Q, and D a compact, boxy silhouette. Apertures are generally tight and terminals are blunt, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) keep crisp angles that contrast with the softened corners. Lowercase forms are simple and modern, with a single-storey a and g, and a short, utilitarian t; the overall rhythm reads as engineered and grid-friendly.
Best suited for short to medium display copy such as UI headings, in-app navigation, product badges, gaming overlays, and tech-oriented branding. The sturdy, simplified shapes and tight apertures help it hold up in bold signage-style applications and high-contrast layouts where a clean, modern voice is needed.
The design conveys a contemporary, tech-forward tone with a slightly playful softness from the rounded corners. It feels functional and machine-made—like interface lettering—while staying approachable rather than aggressive. The squared curves add a retro-future flavor reminiscent of digital hardware and arcade-era signage.
Likely designed to deliver a modern geometric sans optimized for screen-forward environments, using superellipse construction to balance strict geometry with friendly rounding. The intent appears to be strong recognizability and a cohesive, system-like aesthetic that reads as contemporary and digitally native.
Distinctive details include the squared-off counters and the rounded-rectangular construction across both letters and numerals, producing a consistent “soft-square” theme. The figure set mirrors the letterforms with similarly rounded corners and compact interiors, supporting a cohesive visual system in logos and UI labels.
