A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with uniform stroke thickness and smoothly radiused corners throughout. Bowls and counters read as squarish ovals, creating a crisp, engineered rhythm with generous interior space. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with compact extenders, and the overall spacing feels open and even, supporting clear word shapes despite the strongly stylized geometry. Diagonals (as in V/W/X/Y) are clean and planar, while curved joins stay soft, keeping the texture both sturdy and polished.
Best suited for display typography where its superelliptical geometry is a feature: product branding, tech and gaming titles, interface headings, packaging, and signage. It can also work for short UI labels and navigation when set with adequate size and spacing, but its pronounced shape language makes it more impactful in headlines than in long-form text.
The rounded-squared construction gives a distinctly modern, tech-facing tone—precise and functional, yet approachable due to the softened corners. It suggests contemporary interfaces, hardware labeling, and sci‑fi or digital branding without feeling sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to translate a rounded-rect, industrial geometry into a coherent alphabet with high consistency across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. Its goal seems to be a contemporary, screen-native voice—clean, sturdy, and recognizably modern—optimized for bold, graphic communication.
Distinctive glyph behaviors include squared, rounded counters in O/0 and similar forms, and a Q with a simple vertical tail that reinforces the mechanical, modular feel. Numerals share the same rounded-rect logic and appear designed for consistency in UI-style settings, with clear, bold silhouettes at display sizes.
