A clean monoline sans with even stroke weight and rounded, circular bowls. Proportions are balanced and straightforward, with open apertures in letters like C, e, and s and a restrained, linear construction throughout. Uppercase forms are simple and geometric-leaning, while the lowercase keeps a clear rhythm with a single-storey a and g, a compact shoulder on r, and a tidy, minimal tail on q. Numerals are similarly plain and readable, with smooth curves and uncomplicated joins.
This font suits everyday reading and functional typography such as UI labels, dashboards, documentation, and general body copy. It also works well for corporate communication, wayfinding, and presentation layouts where a calm, legible sans is needed.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, aiming for clarity over personality. Its unobtrusive shapes and steady texture give it a practical, contemporary feel that fits interface and informational contexts.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose sans optimized for clarity and consistency, using simple geometry and open forms to maintain legibility across sizes and settings.
Terminals are mostly horizontal or softly rounded, avoiding decorative cuts. Curves and straight segments meet cleanly, producing an even typographic color in text settings; the sample paragraph reads smoothly without drawing attention to any one letterform.
