A clean sans with squared, rounded-corner construction and generous horizontal proportions. Strokes are mostly linear but show selective modulation at joins and curves, producing a crisp, contrasted rhythm without becoming calligraphic. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangular shapes (notably in O, D, and 0), while terminals are flat and precise, giving a machined, engineered finish. Lowercase forms are simple and open, with single-storey a and g and an uncluttered, utilitarian texture in continuous text.
It works well where a contemporary, engineered voice is needed—interface labels, product UI, dashboards, and wayfinding—especially at medium and larger sizes where the squared curves and sharp diagonals read clearly. Its distinctive geometry also suits tech-forward headlines and brand wordmarks that want a clean, futuristic posture without ornament.
The overall tone is modern and technical, with a futuristic, instrument-panel calm. Rounded corners soften the geometry just enough to feel approachable, but the dominant impression remains sleek, rational, and system-oriented.
The letterforms appear designed to balance geometric clarity with slightly softened corners, aiming for a precise, modern sans that feels purpose-built for digital environments. Contrast is used as a structural accent at curves and joins to keep forms crisp and legible while preserving a minimal, technical aesthetic.
The design leans on rectangular curves and consistent corner radii, creating strong visual coherence across letters and numerals. Diagonals in V/W/X and the compact punctuation-like details (dots on i/j) maintain a sharp, controlled presence that suits digital and UI-like settings.
