A crisp sans with monolinear strokes and a rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction throughout. Curves resolve into softly squared corners, giving bowls and counters a compact, controlled feel rather than purely circular geometry. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with generous rounding at joins and bends; apertures stay open and the internal spacing remains even, supporting a steady texture in text. Proportions read contemporary and practical, with clear differentiation in forms like I/l/1 and a straightforward, uncluttered numeral set.
Well suited to UI and product typography where clarity and a contemporary voice are needed, including dashboards, app navigation, and settings screens. It also fits signage and wayfinding, as well as modern brand systems that want a clean, slightly softened edge. In editorial or marketing copy, it works best for short to medium-length text where its controlled geometry can stay crisp.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a gentle friendliness coming from the rounded corners. It feels quietly technical—appropriate for interfaces and systems—while remaining approachable and non-stylized in running text.
The design appears intended to blend geometric discipline with softened corners for comfort, creating a system-friendly sans that reads cleanly across headings and text. Its consistent rounding and straightforward character shapes suggest an aim for dependable legibility with a subtly distinctive, modern silhouette.
Diagonal letters keep a firm, engineered stance, and round letters avoid wobble by leaning on consistent corner radii and tidy joins. The sample text shows stable word shapes and a smooth rhythm, with counters that stay readable even as letters pack together.
