A clean geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction in bowls and counters. Strokes are monoline and evenly modulated, with smooth curves and flat, neatly terminated horizontals and verticals. Proportions feel balanced and contemporary, with open apertures and generous inner spaces that keep forms legible. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey constructions (notably the a and g), and numerals follow the same rounded, even-weight logic for a consistent text-and-UI rhythm.
Works well for interface typography, dashboards, and product experiences where clarity and a contemporary feel are needed. Its clean rhythm also suits brand systems and marketing collateral that aim for a modern, approachable neutrality, and it can perform in editorial settings at comfortable text sizes.
The overall tone is modern and calm, combining a slightly softened friendliness from the rounded geometry with a precise, engineered clarity. It reads as neutral and dependable rather than expressive, making it suitable for straightforward communication.
Likely designed to provide a versatile, contemporary sans with softened geometry—combining the clarity of engineered shapes with enough roundness to feel approachable across digital and print applications.
Round letters like C, G, O, and Q maintain a consistent superelliptical silhouette, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay crisp and controlled. Spacing appears even in the sample text, supporting smooth reading without calling attention to the letterforms.
