A clean sans with a predominantly geometric construction and softly rounded curves. Strokes are even and consistent, with generous internal counters and open apertures that keep forms clear at text sizes. Proportions lean broad, giving letters a stable, spacious feel, while terminals are largely straight and tidy with minimal stroke modulation. The uppercase set reads simple and architectural; the lowercase maintains a straightforward, contemporary skeleton with a single-story “g” and compact, functional joins.
It performs well in UI and product typography, dashboards, and wayfinding where clarity and steady rhythm are priorities. The broad proportions and open shapes also make it effective for headlines and brand systems that want a modern, uncomplicated voice, while remaining comfortable for short-to-medium editorial passages.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, balancing a technical, system-like clarity with gentle roundness that keeps it friendly rather than stark. It feels pragmatic and information-forward, suited to interfaces and everyday communication where legibility and calmness matter more than personality-driven flair.
The design intent appears to be a versatile, contemporary sans that prioritizes legibility and visual steadiness. Its geometric lean and restrained detailing suggest it was drawn to work reliably across digital and print contexts, providing a neutral foundation for brands and interfaces.
Figures are clear and modern in feel, with smooth curves and consistent spacing that supports an even typographic color. The design avoids decorative quirks, relying instead on clean geometry, open counters, and predictable letterforms to achieve readability and consistency across settings.
