A compact, geometric sans with sturdy strokes and rounded bowls. The curves are smooth and nearly circular, while terminals are clean and mostly flat, creating a crisp, contemporary silhouette. Counters are moderately open and the overall proportions feel slightly condensed in the rounds, giving the face a dense, efficient texture in text. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably in a and g), and the numerals follow the same rounded, even-weight construction for consistent color across mixed settings.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks that need a solid, contemporary voice. Its compact shapes and clear geometry also work well for signage and short UI labels where strong presence and quick recognition matter.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, with a friendly geometric softness that still reads as confident and no-nonsense. It feels utilitarian in a good way—direct, legible, and contemporary—without drifting into overly technical or decorative territory.
The font appears designed to deliver a clear, modern geometric look with dependable readability and strong visual weight. It prioritizes consistency of curve and stroke behavior to create a unified, versatile tone across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The design relies on consistent circular geometry in letters like C, O, Q, and G, balanced by straight-sided stems in H, N, and U, producing a steady rhythm. Diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are broad and emphatic, and the forms keep a tight, compact footprint that helps maintain strong presence at display sizes.
