A clean sans with a superelliptic construction: rounds are drawn as softened rectangles rather than perfect circles, giving counters and bowls a slightly squared, contemporary feel. Strokes are even and steady with minimal modulation, and terminals are predominantly blunt with gentle rounding at corners. Proportions feel balanced and compact, with wide, open apertures and simple, highly regular forms that keep rhythm consistent across text.
Well suited to interface typography, product copy, and wayfinding where a stable rhythm and high clarity are needed. The superelliptic curves also make it a good fit for contemporary branding, dashboards, and editorial headlines that aim for a clean, modern voice while remaining readable in longer passages.
The overall tone is modern and practical, with a quiet friendliness created by the rounded-rectangle curves. It reads as straightforward and dependable rather than expressive, making it feel contemporary and systemlike without becoming cold.
Likely designed to provide a versatile, contemporary sans that feels more distinctive than a purely neo-grotesque through its rounded-rectangle geometry, while preserving straightforward legibility and consistent texture in text.
Round letters (like O, C, and Q) show the characteristic rounded-rectangle geometry, while diagonals (A, V, W, Y) remain crisp and stable. Numerals follow the same restrained, utilitarian logic with clear silhouettes suited to continuous reading.
