A compact, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves and a steady, even stroke. Counters are open and simplified, with broadly circular bowls rendered as squarish rounds (notably in C, O, and G). Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, giving the design a crisp silhouette, while the rounded corners soften the overall color. Proportions lean slightly condensed in many capitals, with clear, sturdy verticals and consistent rhythm across letters and numerals.
This font suits headlines and short-to-medium copy where a clean, contemporary voice is needed, especially in interfaces, dashboards, labels, and wayfinding. Its compact geometry and sturdy strokes also make it effective for branding and packaging that wants a modern, friendly sans without overt quirk.
The tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a technical, UI-ready clarity with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. It reads as confident and practical rather than expressive, making it feel at home in modern product and brand systems.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern geometric sans with softened corners—prioritizing clarity, consistency, and a distinctive superelliptical roundness that stays recognizable across letters and numerals.
Distinctive superelliptical round forms create a recognizable texture at larger sizes, while the straightforward construction keeps word shapes stable in text. Numerals match the letterforms’ compact, squared-round logic, supporting a consistent typographic voice across mixed alphanumeric settings.
