A clean monolinear sans with open counters, smooth circular bowls, and straightforward construction. Strokes maintain an even weight with minimal modulation, and terminals are predominantly straight or softly rounded, keeping the silhouette crisp. Capitals show simple geometric structure (notably the round O/Q/C) paired with practical, slightly humanist joins in letters like R and K. Lowercase forms are clear and unembellished, with a single-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a short, clean crossbar on t; dots are round and centered. Numerals follow the same restrained geometry, with a plain 1, open 4, and balanced 8/0 that align visually with the letterforms.
Well suited for user interfaces, dashboards, and product typography where clarity and a neutral voice are priorities. The clean geometry also works for signage and wayfinding, as well as editorial layouts and presentation materials that need an unobtrusive, modern sans.
The overall tone is contemporary and utilitarian, projecting a calm, matter-of-fact voice rather than a decorative one. Its wide, airy shapes and generous openings give it a friendly clarity that feels at home in digital interfaces and modern branding systems.
Designed to provide a straightforward, contemporary sans with high clarity and a stable, even rhythm. The emphasis appears to be on simple geometry, open forms, and dependable readability across headings and running text without stylistic distraction.
Round letters (C, O, Q) read especially smooth and consistent, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay sharp without appearing aggressive. The set maintains a steady rhythm in text, with ample internal space supporting legibility at smaller sizes and a neat, minimal presence at display sizes.
