A clean sans with superelliptical construction: rounds are built from rounded-rectangle curves rather than perfect circles, giving bowls and counters a softly squared feel. Strokes are monolinear with smooth joins and minimal modulation, and terminals tend to be straight or gently softened rather than sharply cut. Proportions are balanced and legible, with open apertures and generous internal space; the lowercase forms read steadily with a straightforward, contemporary skeleton. Figures and capitals match the same geometric logic, producing an even, predictable texture in text.
Well-suited to interface typography, product UI, dashboards, and system-like layouts where a steady rhythm and clear counters aid readability. The geometric, softly squared forms also work for contemporary branding, packaging, and signage that aims for clean structure with a mild warmth.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a subtle friendliness from the rounded geometry. It suggests clarity, order, and a slightly tech-oriented pragmatism without feeling cold or overly rigid.
The font appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric voice built on superelliptical shapes, balancing strict construction with softened corners for approachability. It prioritizes consistent proportions and clarity in running text while retaining a distinctive rounded-rectangle personality.
The rounded-square DNA shows most in the bowls (C/G/O/Q and lowercase o/e) and in the squarish shoulder transitions, creating a distinctive geometric flavor while keeping a practical text rhythm. The design feels optimized for consistency across letters and numerals, favoring stable spacing and clear silhouettes.
