A geometric sans built from superelliptic, rounded-rectangle construction, with gently squared curves and consistent stroke weight. Corners and terminals are smoothly rounded rather than sharply cut, giving bowls and counters a soft, rectilinear feel (notably in O, Q, 0, and 8). Proportions are fairly uniform and modular, with open apertures and simplified joins that keep the texture even in paragraph settings; numerals and many lowercase forms echo the same rounded-square geometry for a cohesive set.
Works well for UI and product typography where rounded geometry and consistent strokes support clear, contemporary reading. It also suits tech-forward branding, packaging, and environmental graphics that benefit from a softened geometric voice, and performs nicely in short headlines and display copy where its superellipse character is most evident.
The overall tone is contemporary and mildly futuristic, pairing a techy, engineered structure with approachable softness from the rounded corners. It feels clean and systematic without becoming cold, making it suitable for interfaces and brand systems that want modern clarity with a friendly edge.
Designed to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical sans that stays legible while projecting a modern, systemized look. The intent appears to balance precision and friendliness by combining modular proportions with softened corners and open, uncomplicated letterforms.
Distinctive superellipse rhythm shows up across rounds and straight-sided forms, producing a “squircle” silhouette in many glyphs. The lowercase leans toward simple, single-storey constructions where applicable, and the figures read as UI-forward, with clear, compact shapes and generous internal counters.
