A wide, geometric sans with monoline strokes and a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circular bowls, giving letters like C, D, O, and Q a squared-off, capsule-like contour. Terminals are clean and mostly horizontal/vertical, with diagonal forms (A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) kept sharp and planar. The lowercase is similarly engineered, with compact apertures, a single-storey a, and rounded counters that echo the uppercase; punctuation and numerals follow the same softened-rectilinear logic for a cohesive, modular rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where its wide, superelliptical forms can be appreciated—headlines, logos, packaging, posters, and tech or sports branding. It can also work for short UI labels and interface titles when you want a clean, futuristic voice, but its width favors concise copy over dense paragraphs.
The overall tone is sleek and technical, reading as contemporary and machine-made rather than humanist. Its wide stance and rounded-square curves suggest a performance-oriented, digital feel—confident, modern, and slightly sci‑fi.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a clear, contemporary sans for modern display use. By keeping strokes uniform and corners consistently softened, it aims for a streamlined, high-tech look with strong visual cohesion across letters and numerals.
In text, the broad proportions create strong horizontal momentum and a distinctive silhouette at larger sizes. The consistent corner rounding unifies the set, while the squared bowls and tight apertures emphasize a controlled, engineered aesthetic.
