A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) forms, with uniform strokes and softly squared corners throughout. Counters tend to be rectangular with generous rounding, and many curves resolve into straight segments rather than fully circular bowls, giving the design a distinctly constructed, modular feel. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt; joins are clean and controlled, producing steady rhythm in both caps and lowercase. Numerals follow the same squared-curved logic, with compact interior shapes and clear, consistent corner radii.
Well suited for user-interface labels, dashboards, and product surfaces where a clean, engineered look reads quickly. It also fits wayfinding and signage, tech and gaming branding, packaging, and punchy headlines that benefit from its soft-squared geometry.
The overall tone is modern and engineered, suggesting interfaces, devices, and contemporary signage. Its rounded corners keep the voice friendly enough to avoid harshness, while the boxy geometry and steady texture maintain a purposeful, technical attitude.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle geometry into a practical, contemporary sans that feels technical without becoming cold. By keeping strokes even and corners consistently softened, it aims for clarity and consistency across letters and numerals while projecting a modern, device-like aesthetic.
The font’s silhouette leans on straight stems and squared bowls (notably in letters like O/Q and rounded-cap shapes), creating a distinctive “soft-squared” identity. The sample text shows a stable color and even spacing that supports short passages while still feeling display-forward due to the strong geometric personality.
