A monoline sans with softly squared, superellipse-like curves and consistently rounded corners throughout. Strokes maintain an even thickness with clean terminals, giving the design a smooth, engineered feel rather than calligraphic contrast. Counters are open and uncomplicated, and the overall proportions feel balanced and calm, with rounded joins and minimal sharp angles even in diagonals. Numerals and capitals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, producing a cohesive, gently geometric rhythm in text.
Well-suited to interface typography, wayfinding, and product/packaging applications where a clean sans with softened edges improves approachability. It can also work for brand systems and editorial pull quotes or headings when a modern geometric voice is desired without a hard, rigid feel.
The tone is modern and friendly, with a mild technical clarity that stays approachable. Its rounded geometry softens the overall voice, making it feel contemporary and straightforward rather than severe or formal.
The font appears designed to merge geometric cleanliness with a more human, rounded warmth. Its consistent stroke and rounded-superellipse construction suggest an intention to be highly legible and versatile while maintaining a recognizable, contemporary personality.
The design’s signature is its rounded-rectangular construction: bowls and bends tend toward squarish curves, and corners are noticeably softened, creating a distinctive “soft geometry” texture at both display and text sizes. Letterfit appears comfortable and even, supporting steady word shapes in continuous reading.
