A crisp, low-frill sans with gently modulated strokes and a clear humanist skeleton. Curves are smooth and fairly round, while terminals are clean and mostly horizontal or softly tapered, giving letters a composed, non-mechanical finish. Proportions feel balanced with open counters and comfortable apertures, and the overall rhythm stays even across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase shows straightforward forms with a two-storey “g” and compact, tidy joins, supporting consistent texture in paragraph settings.
Well-suited to long-form reading in magazines, reports, and general editorial layouts where an even typographic color matters. It can also serve as a clean UI or product typeface when a neutral, polished voice is needed without harsh geometry.
The tone is modern and restrained, aiming for clarity over personality while still feeling slightly warm and literary. Its calm, refined presence reads as editorial and professional rather than utilitarian or playful.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose sans for text and titles, prioritizing legibility, balanced proportions, and a quiet, contemporary tone that stays out of the way while maintaining a refined finish.
The uppercase has a poised, slightly classical stance with round bowls and controlled spacing, while the numerals share the same smooth, measured drawing for a cohesive set. Overall color is steady and legible, with enough shaping to avoid a stark, purely geometric feel.
