A clean, geometric sans with sturdy, uniform strokes and broadly rounded curves. Counters are open and generous, with smooth circular/oval construction in letters like C, O, and Q, and largely squared terminals that keep the forms crisp. Uppercase proportions feel compact and stable, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation with single-storey a and g, a short-armed t, and simple, unadorned forms throughout. Numerals are similarly direct and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ even rhythm and consistent weight.
Well suited to headlines and short-to-medium text where strong presence and quick recognition are important. It should perform especially well in branding systems, interface labels, wayfinding/signage, and promotional graphics that benefit from a clean, modern sans with clear letterforms.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, projecting confidence without feeling aggressive. Its rounded geometry adds a mild friendliness, making it feel approachable and neutral rather than techy or decorative.
The font appears designed to deliver high legibility with a modern, geometric voice, using simplified construction and open counters to stay readable while maintaining a firm, contemporary presence.
The design prioritizes clarity at a glance: wide apertures, minimal detailing, and steady spacing create a strong, even texture in both the glyph grid and paragraph sample. The Q’s tail is subtle and controlled, and the lowercase shapes keep a calm, systematic feel that reads cleanly in continuous text.
