A clean sans with open, rounded forms and smooth curve construction paired with straightforward vertical stems. Stroke weight stays even across curves and straights, producing a consistent typographic color. Proportions lean tall, with relatively long extenders and a notably high x-height that keeps lowercase large and readable. Terminals are mostly plain and slightly softened, and counters are generous, especially in letters like a, e, s, and g, which show open apertures and a relaxed, humanist rhythm.
Well-suited for interface copy, product and web typography, and general editorial text where clarity and steady rhythm matter. The open apertures and large lowercase presence also make it a good choice for signage and corporate materials that need a neutral, reliable voice.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable without calling attention to itself. Its calm, neutral shapes and open spacing give it a practical, everyday voice that feels at home in digital interfaces and general-purpose communication.
The design appears intended as a versatile, workhorse sans: clear at small sizes, comfortable in paragraphs, and modern enough for contemporary branding. Its high lowercase presence and open counters suggest a focus on readability and straightforward communication.
Uppercase forms are simple and stable, while lowercase details add subtle warmth (notably the single-storey a and g). Figures are straightforward and legible, matching the text’s even rhythm. The sample text shows clear word shapes and steady spacing, suggesting the design is optimized for continuous reading at typical UI and editorial sizes.
