A clean, rounded sans with softly modeled strokes and a restrained, even rhythm. Curves are smooth and circular in character, with open apertures in letters like C, S, and e, and simple, unembellished construction throughout. Uppercase forms are straightforward and balanced, while lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a compact t with a short crossbar, and overall generous counters that keep text clear at size. Numerals follow the same gently rounded geometry, with readable, contemporary proportions.
Well-suited to interface typography, product copy, and general-purpose body text where clarity and a steady rhythm are priorities. Its simple, rounded construction also works for signage and brand systems that want a contemporary but approachable sans.
The tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a warm, approachable edge created by the rounded curves and open forms. It feels neutral enough for general UI and editorial use, yet friendly rather than stark or overly technical.
The design appears intended as a versatile workhorse sans: simple shapes, open counters, and unobtrusive details that prioritize legibility and a friendly neutrality across headlines and continuous reading.
Spacing appears airy and consistent, supporting smooth scanning in paragraph settings. Diagonal letters (V, W, X, Y) keep crisp joins without becoming sharp or aggressive, reinforcing the font’s calm, everyday voice.
