A monoline, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Curves read as superelliptical rather than purely circular, giving bowls and counters a gently squared feel (notably in O/Q/0/8). Terminals are clean and largely unbracketed, with slightly flattened curves and consistent stroke weight. Proportions run on the broader side with generous horizontal spread and open spacing; diagonals in A/V/W/X are crisp while maintaining the same smooth, rounded logic at joins. Lowercase forms keep a steady rhythm with simple, upright stems and rounded shoulders, and numerals follow the same soft-corner geometry for a cohesive texture.
Works well for UI labeling, dashboards, and product typography where a modern, rounded sans can soften a technical layout. The wide stance and oblique angle make it effective for short headlines, navigation, and signage, and it remains readable in medium-size text where its open counters and even stroke color help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is contemporary and efficient, with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. It feels quietly technical—suited to interfaces and product contexts—while the oblique posture adds a sense of motion without becoming expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to combine a contemporary rounded-rectangle skeleton with an oblique, forward-leaning stance, producing a clean sans that feels both approachable and precise. Its consistent geometry across letters and numerals suggests an emphasis on system-like cohesion for on-screen and branded applications.
Round forms (o, e, 0, 8, 9) show a consistent squircle-like contour that keeps counters stable and legible. The Q features a short diagonal tail, and the single-storey a and g contribute to a simplified, functional character set. Ascenders and descenders appear moderate, keeping lines compact and even in running text.
