A monoline sans with very wide proportions and a calm, even rhythm. Curves are built from clean circular/elliptical geometry, while straight strokes stay crisp and consistent in thickness. Counters are open and spacious, apertures are generous, and joins are kept simple, producing a tidy, uncluttered silhouette across both uppercase and lowercase. The overall color is light and breathable, with ample internal space and comfortable sidebearings that emphasize horizontality.
Best suited to display settings where width and openness can be an asset: headlines, posters, branding systems, packaging, and signage. It also works well for short UI labels or editorial pull quotes when a modern, spacious typographic voice is desired.
The font reads as modern and minimalist, with an airy, gallery-like restraint. Its wide stance and smooth geometry give it a composed, contemporary tone that feels neutral, technical, and design-forward rather than expressive or nostalgic.
The design appears intended to provide a neutral, contemporary sans with a distinctly wide footprint and geometric clarity. Its restrained detailing and consistent stroke behavior prioritize legibility at larger sizes and a refined, architectural presence in layout.
Round characters (like O/C/G and o/c/e) maintain a consistent geometric logic, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are sharp and stable, reinforcing a precise, engineered feel. Numerals follow the same open, rounded construction and stay visually consistent with the letterforms, supporting clean typographic layouts.
