A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry, with straight stems and softly radiused corners throughout. Strokes read largely monoline, producing a crisp, even color, while proportions skew tall with narrow internal counters that keep the rhythm tight. Round letters (like O/C) feel squarish rather than circular, and terminals are clean and consistent, reinforcing a structured, engineered look. Numerals follow the same squared-round logic, with simple, open shapes and a streamlined, contemporary silhouette.
Well suited to interface typography, product UI, dashboards, and technical labeling where a clean, structured voice is desirable. It also performs well in branding and display settings—especially for technology, architecture, gaming, or futuristic themes—where its squared-round forms can become a recognizable visual signature.
The overall tone is modern and technical, with a subtle sci‑fi/industrial flavor driven by the rounded-rectangular curves and compact spacing. It feels deliberate and efficient rather than expressive, projecting clarity, control, and a slightly futuristic atmosphere.
The font appears designed to translate superellipse/rounded-rectangle construction into a practical sans for contemporary digital contexts, prioritizing consistency of curvature, tight rhythm, and a distinctive geometric identity.
The design’s consistent corner radii and tight apertures create a distinctive “soft-square” voice that stays uniform from caps through lowercase and figures. The narrow counters and compact letterforms can make dense paragraphs feel sleek but visually busy at small sizes, while larger settings emphasize its distinctive geometry.
