A compact sans with monoline construction and a distinctly squared, superellipse-like geometry. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle forms, producing boxy counters in letters like O, D, and U, while terminals are clean and largely straight-cut. The rhythm is tight and efficient, with narrow proportions and simple, sturdy joins; diagonals (A, V, W, X) are crisp and unembellished. Lowercase forms are straightforward and legible, with a single-storey a and g, short extenders, and minimal modulation across strokes.
Well suited to UI and product environments where a compact, geometric sans reads clearly and feels contemporary. It works effectively for signage and wayfinding, tech-forward branding, and headline or short-copy settings where the squared-round character can carry a distinctive, structured presence.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a technical, interface-friendly feel. Its rounded-square shapes soften the austerity of a purely rectilinear design, keeping the voice neutral and approachable while still reading as precise and engineered.
The font appears intended to deliver a clean, modern sans with a signature rounded-rectangle construction, balancing strict geometry with softened corners for readability and friendliness. The narrow proportions and straightforward letterforms suggest an emphasis on efficient layout, clarity, and a cohesive system-like aesthetic.
The design consistently favors rounded corners over true circles, giving both letters and numerals a cohesive, modular look. Numerals follow the same squared curvature, and open apertures and simple terminals help maintain clarity at text and display sizes.
