A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms, with monoline strokes and heavily softened corners. Curves tend to resolve into squared bowls and flat terminals, creating a compact, engineered silhouette rather than a purely circular one. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short ascenders/descenders, and overall spacing reads even and controlled, with a steady rhythm across text. Numerals match the same rounded-rect geometry, including an ovalized zero with a diagonal slash.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short copy where the rounded-square geometry can read as a stylistic choice. It can also work for tech-oriented UI labels, product naming, packaging, and signage where a sturdy, contemporary voice is helpful.
The squared-but-soft curves give a retro-tech tone—clean, modern, and slightly sci‑fi—while still feeling approachable due to the rounded corners and open counters. The weight and compact forms project confidence and utility, with a mild display flair that keeps it from feeling generic.
The design appears intended to merge geometric clarity with a softened, superelliptical construction: a utilitarian sans that feels engineered yet friendly. Its distinctive rounded-rect vocabulary and compact proportions suggest an emphasis on recognizability and impact in display and interface contexts.
Several characters use distinctive construction details—like the diagonal slash in the zero and the angular, notched joins in some lowercase shapes—that emphasize a crafted, modular aesthetic. The design stays consistent between caps, lowercase, and figures, supporting strong word-shape at larger sizes.
