A straightforward sans with gently rounded terminals and slightly softened corners throughout. Curves are smooth and circular, with open counters and clear apertures that keep shapes readable at text sizes. Strokes maintain an even, low-contrast color, while proportions feel balanced and unforced—neither strictly geometric nor overtly calligraphic. Numerals follow the same calm construction, with simple forms and consistent stroke behavior that match the letters.
Well-suited for interface copy, product and brand systems needing an approachable sans, and general-purpose editorial text where clarity and neutrality are important. Its soft terminals and open forms also work well for wayfinding, labels, and packaging where a friendly but clean voice is desired.
The overall tone is friendly and accessible, with a contemporary simplicity that reads as neutral rather than corporate or technical. The rounded details add warmth, giving it an easygoing, informal polish without becoming playful or gimmicky.
The design appears intended as a versatile everyday sans: clear, modern letterforms with softened details to improve approachability and maintain comfortable readability across headings and paragraph text.
Uppercase forms are clean and stable with broad, open bowls (notably in B, D, P, R) and uncomplicated diagonals (K, V, W, X). Lowercase maintains clear differentiation with a single-storey a and g and a compact, unobtrusive f, contributing to an even texture in running text. Spacing and shapes produce a steady rhythm that remains legible in multi-line settings.
