A geometric sans with superelliptic construction: rounded-rectangle curves, softened corners, and mostly monoline strokes. Capitals are compact and steady, with broad, squared rounds in forms like O, D, and U, while C and G keep clean, open apertures. The lowercase continues the same logic with a single-storey a and g, straight-sided stems, and rounded terminals that often feel gently squared rather than fully circular. Numerals are similarly constructed, with a simple, readable 1 and rounded, sturdy bowls in 0, 6, 8, and 9.
It suits interface and product contexts where a clean geometric voice is needed without sharp, industrial edges—UI labels, dashboards, and tech-oriented branding. The strong silhouette and rounded-rect character also work well for headlines, wayfinding/signage, and packaging where a modern, friendly tone is desired.
The overall tone feels modern and approachable, blending a contemporary UI sensibility with a subtle retro-tech flavor. Its rounded-rect geometry reads organized and engineered, but the softened corners keep it from feeling sterile or harsh.
The font appears designed to translate superelliptic geometry into a practical sans for contemporary design, prioritizing consistent construction, legibility, and a distinctive rounded-rect identity. It aims to feel systematic and modern while remaining approachable through softened terminals and open forms.
The design leans on consistent curve logic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving text a smooth, even rhythm. Wide interior counters and clearly defined joins help maintain clarity at display and larger text sizes, while the distinctive superellipse rounds give it a recognizable voice.
