A crisp, geometric sans with round, near-circular bowls and smooth, consistent curves. Strokes are generally even and light, with subtle modulation that becomes most noticeable where curves meet straight stems. Proportions feel slightly expanded, giving letters generous internal space and open apertures, while joins and terminals stay clean and uncluttered. Numerals follow the same circular logic, with a simple, readable construction and minimal ornamental detail.
Well suited to interfaces and product copy where a light, spacious sans helps maintain clarity. It also works for editorial headlines and subheads, contemporary branding systems, and packaging that benefits from a clean, geometric tone. In larger sizes it presents as sleek and minimal; in text it remains readable thanks to open counters and uncomplicated letterforms.
The overall tone is modern and restrained, with an airy clarity that reads as approachable rather than loud. Its rounded geometry and open spacing lend a calm, contemporary voice suited to polished, design-forward communication.
The design appears aimed at a neutral, contemporary sans that prioritizes geometric simplicity, consistent rhythm, and clean readability across both display and paragraph settings.
Uppercase forms maintain a steady, architectural rhythm, while lowercase shapes keep counters open and simple for legibility in text. The design emphasizes smooth continuity in curved letters (C, G, O, Q) and straightforward, linear treatment in stem-heavy forms (H, I, L, T), creating a balanced texture across mixed-case settings.
