A clean, geometric sans with largely circular bowls and smooth, even curves paired with straight, vertical terminals. Strokes read consistently robust with minimal contrast, and counters are open and generously shaped, supporting clear letterforms at text sizes. The overall construction favors simple geometry: rounded O/C forms, a straightforward double-storey style in the lowercase a, and compact, tidy joins in letters like n and m. Numerals are simple and sturdy, matching the letterforms with rounded shapes and clear interior space.
Works well for interface typography, product copy, and general-purpose editorial text where clarity and a steady rhythm are priorities. Its geometric simplicity also scales effectively for headings, wayfinding, and brand systems that need a modern, no-nonsense sans.
The tone is contemporary and practical, with a calm neutrality that feels approachable rather than clinical. Its rounded geometry gives it a friendly, straightforward voice suited to everyday communication and interface-forward design.
The design appears aimed at a dependable, contemporary workhorse sans: geometry-led shapes, open counters, and consistent stroke behavior to prioritize legibility and broad usability across text and display settings.
Spacing appears even and disciplined in the sample text, producing a steady rhythm in paragraphs while still allowing prominent emphasis in larger sizes. Uppercase forms feel confident and solid without decorative quirks, and punctuation integrates cleanly with the same straightforward construction.
