A clean sans serif with smooth, rounded curves and straightforward geometry. Strokes are even and consistent, with open apertures and generous interior counters that keep forms clear at text sizes. The lowercase shows simple constructions (single-storey a and g), a short-shouldered r, and a tall, narrow t with a compact crossbar, contributing to a tidy, contemporary rhythm. Capitals are plain and balanced, with circular O/Q forms and a minimal Q tail, while numerals appear proportional and evenly spaced for continuous reading.
Well suited to interface and product typography, where clarity and a steady text rhythm matter. The open shapes and simple lowercase constructions also make it a solid choice for editorial body text, informational graphics, and straightforward signage or wayfinding at moderate sizes.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, leaning friendly through its rounded forms and open counters. It feels practical and unobtrusive rather than expressive, supporting content-first typography with a calm, approachable voice.
Likely designed as a dependable, general-purpose sans that prioritizes legibility and visual neutrality. Its restrained details and rounded geometry suggest an aim for broad usability across screens and print, delivering a modern look without calling attention to itself.
Spacing appears even and controlled in both the grid and paragraph sample, producing a smooth texture without visible sharp quirks or decorative terminals. Curves and joins are clean and consistent, reinforcing a general-purpose, systemlike clarity.
