A rounded geometric sans with smooth, continuous curves and a consistently even stroke. Forms are built from broad ovals and gently squared curves, giving counters a pill-like shape and keeping joins clean and controlled. Corners are softened throughout, terminals feel rounded rather than sharply cut, and spacing is generous, producing an airy rhythm and strong horizontal presence. Lowercase shapes are simple and highly legible, with compact ascenders/descenders relative to the prominent x-height.
Best suited to short-to-medium text at larger sizes where its wide proportions and rounded geometry can define a modern voice—such as UI titles, app and device branding, wayfinding, packaging, and poster headlines. It also works well for logos and wordmarks that benefit from a clean, friendly, contemporary look.
The overall tone is modern and optimistic, with a distinctly tech-forward character. Its wide, rounded construction reads as approachable rather than severe, suggesting interfaces, mobility, and contemporary product aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric sans that feels streamlined and user-friendly, combining wide, rounded construction with clear, simplified letterforms for modern display and interface contexts.
Round letters like O/0 and C/S lean toward elliptical geometry, while diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) keep a smooth, streamlined feel rather than a sharp, angular one. Numerals follow the same rounded logic, staying consistent with the letterforms and maintaining clear silhouettes at display sizes.
