A rounded sans with monoline construction and generously softened corners throughout. The letterforms lean geometric, using squarish curves and wide-radius turns that keep counters open and shapes highly consistent. Strokes maintain an even thickness, with terminals ending in rounded caps that reduce sharpness and give a smooth, manufactured feel. Proportions are compact and steady, with clear spacing and simplified joins that keep the texture even in longer text.
Well suited to user interfaces, dashboards, and product experiences where a friendly, highly legible sans is needed at small to medium sizes. Its smooth terminals and geometric regularity also work well for wayfinding, packaging, and contemporary brand systems that want a soft, tech-forward voice.
The overall tone is friendly and contemporary, with a mild “tech interface” flavor coming from the squircle-like curves and modular rhythm. It reads clean and approachable rather than formal, suggesting digital products, playful utility, and modern branding without feeling overly decorative.
The design appears intended to balance neutrality and personality by pairing a straightforward sans structure with consistently rounded terminals and squarish curves. It aims for clear, dependable reading while projecting a modern, approachable presence in digital-first contexts.
Distinctive rounded-square geometry shows up in both bowls and corners, creating a consistent visual system across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The design prioritizes clarity over calligraphic nuance, producing a stable, even color in paragraphs while still retaining a recognizable rounded character.
