A clean sans serif with largely circular, geometric construction and smooth, consistent stroke modulation. Uppercase forms are broad and stable, with round bowls (C, G, O, Q) that read as near-circular and a straightforward, unembellished skeleton. Counters are open and clear, terminals are mostly plain and clean-cut, and joins are kept simple, producing an even rhythm in text. The lowercase is similarly rational, with single-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and short, efficient arms and tails that keep word shapes tidy. Numerals follow the same geometry, with rounded forms and clear differentiation between characters.
Well-suited to interface and product text where clarity and a steady rhythm are important, and equally comfortable in headlines and subheads thanks to its clean geometry. The friendly, rounded construction also fits contemporary branding systems, packaging, and signage that need a neutral but approachable sans.
The overall tone is contemporary and unassuming, leaning toward a friendly neutrality rather than overtly technical or expressive. Its roundness and openness give it an approachable, everyday voice suitable for broad communication without calling attention to itself.
The design appears intended as a versatile, modern workhorse sans: geometric enough to feel current and orderly, but softened by rounded forms and open counters to remain readable and welcoming across many contexts.
Round letters maintain consistent curvature and spacing, helping the face feel cohesive from display sizes down into paragraph settings. Diacritics shown in the sample (e.g., acute and dot accents) appear simple and centered, matching the font’s plain, geometric detailing.
