A monoline sans with a geometric, superellipse skeleton: bowls and counters tend toward rounded-rectangle forms, with smooth corner radii and flat-ish horizontals that keep shapes tidy and controlled. Curves are restrained and consistent, producing squarish O/Q forms and similarly squared C/G/S contours. Strokes stay even throughout, terminals are clean and largely straight-cut, and spacing reads airy and orderly in both the grid and the text sample. Numerals and capitals follow the same rounded-rect logic, giving the set a cohesive, system-like rhythm.
Well-suited to interface typography, dashboards, and product/tech branding where a clean, contemporary voice is needed. The consistent geometry and open forms also work well for signage and infographics, and it can serve as a distinctive display sans for headings where the rounded-rect personality can be seen.
The overall tone is contemporary and utilitarian, with a distinctly digital/industrial feel. Its softened corners keep it approachable, while the precise geometry and uniform stroke treatment suggest technology, interfaces, and engineered products rather than expressive or editorial typography.
The design appears intended to translate the logic of rounded rectangles and superellipses into a practical sans: consistent stroke weight, controlled curves, and simplified details that reproduce predictably across sizes. It aims to feel modern and systematized while staying friendly through softened corners.
Distinctive superellipse shaping is most apparent in O/Q/0 and in rounded-shoulder letters like n/m/h, creating a consistent “squared-round” motif across the alphabet. The design emphasizes clarity through open counters and simplified joins, keeping text color even and calm over longer lines.
