A rounded-rectangle sans with a superelliptical construction: strokes are heavy and even, corners are generously radiused, and bowls tend toward squarish ovals rather than true circles. Curves connect with smooth, softened terminals, producing a compact, engineered feel and consistent texture in text. Capitals are wide and stable with simplified joins, while lowercase forms keep open apertures and straightforward, largely single-storey structures. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with clear, blocky silhouettes and minimal curvature contrast.
This font works well for UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding where sturdy shapes and simplified forms stay clear at a range of sizes. It’s also well-suited to headlines, logos, and product packaging that benefit from a modern, rounded-tech personality and strong silhouette.
The overall tone is contemporary and tech-forward, balancing a utilitarian, modular backbone with approachable softness from the rounded corners. It reads as confident and modern without feeling harsh, making it suitable for interfaces and product-forward branding.
The design appears intended to translate geometric, rounded-rect forms into an everyday sans that feels contemporary and systematic. Its consistent stroke weight and softened corners suggest a focus on clarity and a friendly, device-oriented aesthetic.
Distinctive squared counters and rounded internal corners give the face a “soft industrial” rhythm. Diacritics and punctuation (as shown) are clean and unobtrusive, with dots and small details rendered as rounded shapes that match the main stroke language.
