A clean, monoline sans with a strong rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction. Strokes are even and crisp, with squared terminals softened by generous corner radii, giving letters like O, D, and U a straight-sided, softly rounded silhouette rather than a pure circle. Counters are open and clear, and the overall rhythm is steady, with simple joins and minimal modulation. The lowercase uses single-storey a and g, compact bowls, and straightforward stems, while figures follow the same rounded, schematic geometry.
It works well in user interfaces, dashboards, and product surfaces where clear letterforms and consistent geometry help readability. The softened corners also suit contemporary branding, packaging, and headings that want a clean but personable voice, and it holds up in short editorial passages and presentation typography.
The tone is modern and approachable, combining a technical, system-like clarity with softened edges that feel friendly rather than stark. It reads as contemporary and functional, with a calm, understated presence suited to clean interfaces and tidy layouts.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern sans built from rounded-rectangle fundamentals, prioritizing clarity and consistency while avoiding harshness. Its restrained detailing and uniform stroke language suggest a focus on versatile everyday typography with a subtle geometric signature.
Round forms consistently avoid fully circular geometry, leaning into rounded-rectangle shapes that create a distinctive, slightly condensed feel in curves. The uppercase has a measured, architectural flavor, while the lowercase and numerals maintain the same softened, utilitarian character for cohesive mixed-case text.
