A geometric sans with superelliptical construction: rounds are based on softened rectangles, giving bowls and counters a squared-off, rounded-rectangle feel. Strokes are even and low-contrast with crisp terminals, producing a steady, engineered rhythm. Corners are consistently rounded, curves are smooth and controlled, and spacing reads slightly generous for clear separation in text. Numerals follow the same square-round logic, with straightforward, highly legible forms.
It suits interface typography, dashboards, and system-like layouts where clarity and consistent geometry matter. The squared-round forms also work well for modern product branding, packaging, and signage that aims for a clean, contemporary voice without feeling overly sharp.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, with a mild friendliness coming from the softened corners. It suggests a product-minded, digital sensibility—clear, systematic, and calm rather than expressive or quirky.
The font appears intended to blend geometric precision with approachable rounded shaping, creating a dependable sans for on-screen reading and structured layouts. Its superelliptical logic aims for a recognizable, cohesive texture that feels modern while staying highly functional.
The design leans toward a UI-centric geometry: circular letters skew toward rounded squares, and the palette of shapes stays tightly unified across capitals, lowercase, and figures. The result is a distinctive square-round texture that remains readable in continuous text.
