A minimalist monoline sans with rounded-rectangle construction and smoothly radiused corners. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls, while straight strokes stay crisp and evenly weighted, producing a calm, airy texture. Uppercase forms are simple and geometric (notably the circular O and C-like G), and the lowercase shows single-storey a and g with open, uncluttered counters. The overall rhythm is generous and open, with clear joins and restrained terminals that keep shapes consistent across letters and numerals.
Well suited to interface labels, dashboards, and product UI where a crisp, uncluttered sans is needed. The rounded-rectangle geometry also makes it effective for contemporary branding and packaging, and it can scale to display use in posters or signage where a clean, modern voice is desired.
The tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a technical, system-like clarity with softened corners that feel friendly rather than strict. Its light, open presence reads calm and refined, suggesting a modern, product-forward sensibility.
The design appears intended to provide a modern geometric sans whose character comes from rounded-rectangle/superellipse construction rather than sharp circular forms, yielding a softer, more approachable technical aesthetic while maintaining clarity and consistency.
Distinctive superellipse cues show up in the rounded corners and squarish bowls (especially in letters like d, o, q, and the lowercase m/n with rounded shoulders). Numerals are clean and geometric, with simple curves and minimal ornament, matching the same soft-cornered logic seen in the letters.
