A geometric sans with a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction, pairing broad proportions with soft corners and mostly monolinear strokes. Curves resolve into squared bowls and flattened terminals, giving counters a boxy, engineered feel. Joins are clean and controlled, with frequent use of rounded corners instead of true circles, and diagonals that keep a consistent stroke weight. The overall rhythm is sturdy and even, with open, legible apertures and a distinctly modular silhouette across letters and numerals.
Best suited to display typography where its wide, rounded-rect geometry can be appreciated—headlines, logotypes, product branding, and tech-forward packaging. It can also work for short UI labels, wayfinding, and sports or automotive-style graphics, especially when generous spacing is available.
The tone is contemporary and machine-made, suggesting technology, transportation, and performance branding. Its softened corners keep the voice friendly rather than aggressive, while the wide stance and squared curves add a confident, functional character.
The design appears intended to translate a superelliptic, rounded-rectangle concept into a cohesive alphabet for modern, brand-forward communication. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, consistent geometry, and a streamlined industrial feel over traditional humanist nuance.
Round letters like O/Q and bowls in B/P/R lean toward squircle geometry, and the uppercase set reads especially architectural due to flattened curves and broad horizontals. Numerals follow the same system, emphasizing stable, high-contrast silhouettes at display sizes.
