A sans-serif outline design built from a single, even contour with open counters and no filled strokes. The letterforms are predominantly geometric with squared shoulders softened by generous rounding, producing a crisp but approachable silhouette. Curves are smooth and consistent, while joins and terminals keep a neatly engineered feel; diagonals and bowls maintain steady spacing that reads clearly at display sizes. Overall proportions are expansive, with roomy internal spaces and a calm, even rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to large-format typography where the contour can remain distinct: headlines, posters, storefront or wayfinding signage, and bold logotype work. It can also add a lightweight, high-tech accent to packaging or editorial display settings when paired with a solid text face.
The font conveys a light, contemporary tone with a technical, schematic character. Its hollow construction feels airy and futuristic, evoking signage, interface labeling, and architectural drafting rather than traditional text typography.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric sans into an outline system that emphasizes structure, negative space, and clarity. It prioritizes a cohesive, modern display voice that feels precise and scalable for graphic applications.
The outline structure makes interior shapes and apertures a primary visual feature, so the design benefits from clean backgrounds and sufficient stroke thickness in production. The rounded corners and consistent contour help keep the alphabet cohesive, while the open, linear treatment gives numerals and punctuation-like forms a clean, engineered presence.
