A clean sans with predominantly circular and elliptical construction, producing smooth bowls and consistent curvature across rounds like C, O, and Q. Strokes are even and steady with minimal modulation, and terminals read as crisp, straightforward cuts. Proportions feel balanced rather than condensed or extended, with clear counters and generous apertures that keep letterforms open in text. The lowercase maintains a stable rhythm with simple, single-storey forms (notably the a), while numerals are clear and evenly weighted for continuous reading.
Well-suited to interface copy, product text, and general-purpose typography where clarity and a steady rhythm matter. It should also work for editorial layouts and straightforward branding systems that need a clean, contemporary sans, and for signage where open counters help quick recognition.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, aiming for clarity over personality. Its rounded geometry gives it a mildly friendly, approachable feel while staying restrained and professional.
The design appears intended as a versatile, everyday sans that prioritizes legibility and consistency, using simple geometric cues to stay contemporary without becoming stylized. It balances neutrality with gentle roundness to remain readable in long-form settings while still feeling current.
In the sample text, spacing and letterfit appear measured and consistent, supporting smooth word shapes at paragraph sizes. The shapes retain clarity in tighter sequences, with round letters and straight-sided stems staying visually even alongside diagonals.
