A geometric sans with a squared, superellipse construction: curves resolve into rounded rectangles, and corners are consistently softened rather than fully circular. Strokes are uniform and firm, with a compact, engineered feel in the bowls and counters. Apertures tend to be relatively narrow and controlled, while terminals are mostly flat, reinforcing a clean, machined rhythm. Numerals and capitals read robust and stable, with rounded-square zeros and other counters that echo the same modular geometry.
Well suited to interface labels, wayfinding and signage, product and tech packaging, and bold editorial headlines where a modern, engineered voice is needed. It can also support branding that wants a clean geometric foundation with subtly softened corners for approachability.
The overall tone is contemporary and technical, projecting efficiency and structure rather than warmth or calligraphic personality. Its rounded-square geometry gives it a friendly edge compared with purely rectilinear industrial faces, while still feeling precise and system-oriented.
The font appears designed to balance a rational, modular skeleton with softened corners, delivering a pragmatic sans that feels both modern and approachable. Its consistent rounded-rectangle construction suggests an intent to perform clearly in functional contexts while maintaining a distinctive geometric signature.
The design maintains a consistent radius language across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, which helps it feel cohesive in UI-like settings. Narrower openings and compact counters make it look strong at display sizes and in short strings, while the rounded corners keep the texture from feeling harsh.
