A clean, geometric sans with mostly monoline strokes and smooth circular curves. Uppercase forms are simple and structured, with round bowls (C, G, O, Q) and straight-sided construction where expected (E, F, H, N), producing an even, steady rhythm. Lowercase shows single‑storey a and g, compact, rounded counters, and straightforward terminals; the j descends cleanly with a round dot, and the q has a clear descender. Numerals are simple and highly legible, with open shapes and consistent stroke thickness, maintaining a cohesive texture in running text.
Well-suited to interface copy, dashboards, and general-purpose digital typography where clarity and neutrality are priorities. It also fits product branding systems and wayfinding/signage that benefit from uncomplicated letterforms and steady spacing.
The overall tone is restrained and practical, reading as contemporary and matter‑of‑fact rather than expressive. Its geometry and plain terminals give it a quietly technical feel that stays out of the way in longer passages.
Designed to provide a straightforward, contemporary sans for everyday typography, prioritizing clean geometry, consistent rhythm, and dependable readability in both isolated glyphs and continuous text.
Round letters are notably close to circular, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are crisp and clean, contributing to a tidy, engineered appearance. Spacing appears balanced and consistent across the grid and in the text sample, supporting an even typographic color.
