A monoline sans with superelliptical construction: rounds are drawn as rounded rectangles with consistent corner radii, giving counters and bowls a squared-off softness. Curves transition into straights with little modulation, and terminals are clean and largely flat, producing an even, engineered rhythm. Several forms lean toward closed apertures and compact counters (notably in letters like C, S, and e), while uppercase geometry stays stable and wide, and lowercase maintains straightforward, utilitarian shapes. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic, with an ovalized zero and squared, open curves elsewhere for a cohesive set.
Well suited to user interfaces, dashboards, and product branding where a clean geometric voice and consistent rounded geometry help maintain a polished, contemporary feel. It should also work for signage and wayfinding at larger sizes, where the squared-rounded forms read clearly and reinforce a modern, designed system.
The overall tone is contemporary and precise, with a distinctly tech-oriented feel softened by rounded corners. It reads as calm and systematic rather than expressive, projecting clarity, interface neutrality, and a subtle friendliness.
The font appears intended to deliver a contemporary sans optimized around superelliptical shapes—combining the neutrality of a geometric sans with softened corners for approachability. Its consistent stroke behavior and controlled, compact apertures suggest an emphasis on system coherence and a tidy on-screen aesthetic.
The design language is very consistent across cases: superelliptical bowls repeat in O/Q/0 and in rounded interior corners, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) stay crisp against the otherwise softened palette. The ampersand in the sample appears similarly simplified and geometric, matching the font’s restrained, UI-like character.
