A clean, contemporary sans with uniform stroke weight and softly rounded joins that keep curves smooth and transitions calm. Uppercase forms are straightforward and open, with near-circular bowls in C, G, O, and Q and a balanced, uncompressed proportion overall. Lowercase shows a humanist lean through open apertures and simple, readable constructions, with rounded bowls and clear, uncluttered counters. Numerals follow the same even, monoline rhythm and feel consistent with the letters in weight and color.
It suits interface copy, documentation, and general-purpose layouts where consistent rhythm and quick recognition matter. The even color and open forms also make it a solid choice for labels, wayfinding-style signage, and data-heavy contexts that mix letters and numbers.
The overall tone is neutral and approachable, aiming for clarity over personality. Its soft rounding and open shapes give it a friendly, everyday modern feel without becoming playful or decorative.
The design appears intended as a versatile workhorse sans that stays unobtrusive in running text while remaining crisp and clear in shorter labels. Its rounded, open constructions suggest an emphasis on readability and a calm, contemporary presentation.
In text, the spacing and letterfit read even and steady, producing a smooth texture at paragraph sizes. The forms avoid sharp or quirky details, which helps maintain consistency across mixed-case settings and alphanumeric strings.
