A geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and consistent stroke weight throughout. Curves resolve into softly squared terminals, producing compact bowls and smooth corner transitions rather than fully circular shapes. Proportions run on the broader side with generous interior counters and open apertures; curves and straights meet with a controlled, engineered feel. The lowercase is simple and highly regular, with single-storey forms and a clean, uncluttered silhouette; figures echo the same rounded-rectilinear geometry for a cohesive set.
Works well for user interfaces, dashboards, and wayfinding where a clean, modern texture is desired and letterforms need to stay distinct. The wide, open shapes also suit contemporary branding, packaging, and short headlines, especially in contexts aiming for a streamlined, product-oriented look.
The overall tone is contemporary and tech-forward, pairing softness from rounded corners with a precise, instrument-like rhythm. It reads as calm and efficient rather than expressive, suggesting a modern interface or product aesthetic.
The design appears intended to blend geometric clarity with approachable softness by building letters from superellipse-like curves and rounded corners. Its regularized forms and consistent stroke treatment emphasize neutrality and system-like consistency, aiming for a modern, tech-friendly typographic voice.
Round forms (O, C, G, 0) lean toward squarish curvature, which gives text a distinctive “soft grid” texture in lines of copy. Diagonal letters (V, W, X, Y) keep sharp joins, contrasting nicely with the rounded bowls and reinforcing the font’s crisp, engineered character.
