A geometric sans with softly squared, superellipse-like rounds and consistently rounded corners throughout. Strokes are even and monolinear, with crisp terminals that still feel softened by the corner treatment. Capitals are wide and stable, with simple construction in forms like E/F/T and a clean, straight-sided M/N. Lowercase shows a compact, contemporary structure with a single-storey a and g, open apertures, and straightforward joins; the overall rhythm is regular and uncluttered. Numerals are simple and readable, matching the same rounded-rectangle logic, with a clean 1 and open 4.
Well-suited to interface typography, product UI, dashboards, and signage where consistent rhythm and clear character shapes matter. Its softened geometry can also work for contemporary brand systems, packaging, and headings where a technical-but-approachable voice is desired.
The overall tone is modern and quietly technical, balancing precision with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. It feels pragmatic and UI-ready rather than expressive or decorative, projecting clarity and approachability.
The design appears intended to deliver a crisp, geometric sans optimized for clarity, with a signature superellipse construction that adds warmth without sacrificing precision. It aims for dependable legibility across mixed-case text while maintaining a distinctive, rounded-rectangular identity.
Round glyphs (O/C/G/Q) lean toward rounded-rectangle silhouettes rather than perfect circles, which gives the face a distinctive, engineered character. The punctuation and text setting in the sample maintain an even color and calm texture, supporting long strings of mixed case without visual noise.
