This sans serif features rounded-rectangle construction, with softly squared curves and consistently rounded corners across bowls and joints. Strokes are even and low-contrast, producing a steady, uniform color in text. Proportions lean geometric with a normal x-height, open apertures, and clear counterforms; capitals feel stable and upright, while lowercase forms stay simple and unembellished. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, with curvature handled by smooth superellipse-like arcs rather than circular rounds.
Its even stroke texture and open counters make it well-suited to UI text, dashboards, and product interfaces, where clarity at small-to-medium sizes matters. The rounded geometry also works well for friendly branding, packaging, and wayfinding/signage systems that benefit from a modern but approachable voice.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable: clean enough for interface and information design, but softened by rounded geometry that reduces severity. It reads as practical and confident without feeling cold, giving it a friendly, tech-forward neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a neutral, highly legible sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangular skeleton, balancing contemporary geometric structure with softened corners for approachability and consistency across text and numerals.
Round forms (like O, C, G, 0, 8, 9) show a distinctly squarish rounding rather than perfect circles, which helps maintain a consistent rhythm with straight-sided letters. Numerals are straightforward and legible, matching the same rounded-rectilinear logic as the letters.
