A slim, geometric sans with consistent stroke weight and a calm, even rhythm. Curves are built from near-circular bowls (notably in O, Q, and 0) paired with straight, vertical stems, giving the design a clean, engineered feel. Terminals are largely straight and unflared, counters stay open, and spacing reads orderly and controlled; the overall effect is tidy and legible at display-to-text sizes. The lowercase shows a compact x-height relative to ascenders, with simple, single-storey forms (a, g) and a restrained, utilitarian construction across the set.
Well-suited to interface typography, dashboards, and information design where a light, orderly voice is helpful. It also works for modern branding, packaging, and editorial headlines that benefit from geometric cleanliness, and for short paragraphs when set with comfortable tracking and leading.
The tone is contemporary and understated, leaning toward a precise, technical neutrality rather than expressive or playful styling. Its thin, uncluttered shapes feel refined and efficient, suggesting clarity and discipline in layout-heavy settings.
The design appears intended as a pared-back geometric sans that prioritizes clarity, consistency, and a contemporary visual cadence. Its restrained detailing and open forms suggest a focus on versatile, system-like typography that stays out of the way while maintaining a modern character.
Round glyphs maintain smooth, continuous curves without noticeable contrast, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay sharp and clean. The Q’s tail is minimal and integrated, and numerals follow the same geometric logic, keeping the overall system visually cohesive.
