This sans serif uses rounded-rectangle and superellipse construction, with softly squared curves and consistently rounded terminals. Strokes are monolinear with low contrast, and counters are generous, producing clear internal shapes in letters like O, P, and e. The uppercase set is straightforward and geometric, while the lowercase maintains a tidy, slightly mechanical rhythm with single-storey a and g, compact shoulders, and clean joins. Figures are simple and highly legible, with rounded corners and stable, even spacing that keeps text color smooth.
It works well for UI and app typography, dashboards, and product marketing where clarity and a modern tone are priorities. The open forms and even rhythm also suit short editorial passages, headings, and wayfinding-style signage at moderate sizes.
The overall tone is calm and approachable, with a contemporary, product-oriented feel. Its softened geometry reads friendly rather than strict, making it suitable for interfaces and brands that want modern clarity without looking cold.
The font appears designed to balance geometric discipline with softened corners, aiming for a contemporary sans that stays legible and neutral while still feeling warm and distinctive. Its consistent rounding and steady stroke weight suggest an emphasis on dependable, system-friendly readability across text and display use.
The design leans on squared-off curvature—especially visible in C, S, and the bowls—creating a distinctive “soft box” silhouette. Diagonals (V, W, X, y) are crisp but still harmonized by rounded ends, helping the font keep a cohesive, gentle texture across mixed-case text and numerals.
