A clean monoline sans with softened, superellipse-like curves and squared-off terminals that create a quietly geometric rhythm. Rounds (C, O, G) feel like rounded rectangles, while straight strokes remain crisp and consistent in thickness. Proportions are balanced and fairly open, with generous counters in letters like e, a, and g, and clear separation in multi-stroke forms such as m and n. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, keeping a consistent, orderly texture in running text.
Well-suited for interface typography, product and brand systems, and informational design where a clean, contemporary voice is needed. The rounded-rect geometry and open counters support legibility in short labels and longer passages alike, while the restrained, consistent stroke behavior works well for wayfinding, dashboards, and modern packaging or editorial sidebars.
The overall tone is modern and neutral with a gentle friendliness from the rounded corners. It reads as pragmatic and systematic rather than expressive, suggesting a contemporary, tech-adjacent personality that stays understated and approachable.
Likely designed to provide a versatile, contemporary sans whose distinguishing feature is a superellipse-based geometry—combining crisp linear structure with softened corners for warmth. The goal appears to be dependable readability with a subtly characteristic silhouette that feels at home in digital and brand-forward contexts.
Diagonal forms (V, W, X, Y) are clean and precise, and the capital set maintains a calm, even presence without dramatic width swings. The lowercase shows simplified, contemporary constructions (single-storey a and g), supporting a streamlined, functional feel. Overall spacing appears even, helping the font maintain clarity in both all-caps and paragraph settings.
