A rounded sans with smooth, monoline construction and consistently softened corners throughout. Strokes maintain an even thickness, with gently curved joins and rounded terminals that keep the texture calm and uniform. Proportions lean compact and geometric, with open counters and straightforward shapes that stay clear at a glance; the lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms and minimal contrast. The numerals and capitals match the same softened geometry, creating a cohesive, highly consistent typographic color in text.
Well-suited to user interfaces, product labels, and wayfinding where a clear, approachable sans is needed. It can also work effectively in branding and packaging that benefits from a modern, friendly tone, and in short-to-medium text settings where consistent rhythm and soft edges improve legibility and warmth.
The overall tone is friendly and contemporary, with a soft, inviting feel that avoids harshness. Its rounded finishing gives it a slightly playful, humanized character while still reading as clean and functional.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a modern sans-serif with an intentionally softened, rounded personality—balancing clarity and neutrality with a welcoming, contemporary voice for everyday communication.
The design emphasizes smooth continuity over sharp angles, which helps maintain a steady rhythm in longer lines. The roundness is applied broadly (corners, joins, and terminals), giving the face a unified, intentionally softened voice.
