A clean monoline sans with predominantly circular and elliptical construction. Curves are smooth and even, terminals are largely straight-cut, and counters are generous, giving letters an open, breathable rhythm. Proportions feel balanced rather than condensed, with a clear baseline and steady vertical stress; the lowercase maintains simple, single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a compact, readable t. Numerals follow the same restrained geometry with open shapes and uncomplicated joins.
This font suits interface and product UI, dashboards, and general-purpose digital typography where clear shapes and open counters help at smaller sizes. It also works well for contemporary branding systems, wayfinding and signage, and clean editorial layouts that benefit from a neutral, geometric voice.
The overall tone is modern and unobtrusive, with a slightly friendly warmth coming from the rounded bowls and open counters. It reads as contemporary and straightforward rather than decorative, aiming for clarity and calm consistency.
The design appears intended as a versatile, modern sans for everyday reading and system-like clarity, prioritizing simple geometry, consistent strokes, and dependable legibility in both display lines and running text.
The uppercase set leans geometric with broad curves (C, G, O, Q) and crisp horizontals (E, F, T), while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) stay sharp and clean. In text, spacing appears even and the shapes maintain legibility through generous apertures and simplified forms.
