A clean sans serif with softly squared, superelliptic curves and consistently rounded terminals. Strokes are even and steady, with open counters and generous apertures that keep forms clear at text sizes. Uppercase shapes feel geometric but not rigid, while lowercase forms maintain a straightforward, contemporary construction with tidy joins and minimal stroke modulation. Figures are simple and legible, matching the letterforms in overall rhythm and spacing.
This font suits interface copy, product and brand systems, and general-purpose editorial or marketing text where clarity and neutrality are important. Its rounded geometry also works well for labels, dashboards, and informational graphics that benefit from a clean, approachable sans.
The overall tone is modern and restrained, with a subtle friendliness coming from the rounded geometry. It reads as calm and practical rather than expressive, making it feel dependable and quietly contemporary.
The design appears intended as a versatile, contemporary sans that prioritizes clarity and consistency while adding a gentle geometric softness through superelliptic round forms. It aims to be distinctive enough for branding and UI, yet neutral enough for sustained reading.
Round letters like O/C/G lean toward a squircle-like outline, which gives the face a distinctive but understated personality. The spacing appears even and well-balanced in running text, supporting a smooth horizontal rhythm without looking condensed or overly wide.
