A rounded, geometric sans with a notably expansive set width and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are monolinear and evenly weighted, with softened terminals that keep forms gentle rather than sharp. Counters are broad and open, and round letters lean toward circular/elliptical construction, giving a spacious rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase. The lowercase maintains clear, simple structures with a single-storey “a,” a looped “g,” and compact join behavior, while numerals follow the same wide, rounded logic for a cohesive texture in running text.
Best suited to headlines, packaging, and brand marks where wide, rounded forms can project clarity and modernity. It also works well for short UI labels or interface display text where open counters and straightforward shapes support quick recognition, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a mildly futuristic, engineered feel with friendly roundedness. Its wide proportions read confident and airy, producing a calm, uncluttered voice suited to modern branding and interface-forward aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, contemporary sans voice with an emphasized width and rounded geometry, prioritizing visual smoothness and spacious legibility. It aims to feel modern and approachable while maintaining a disciplined, geometric structure.
The width creates strong horizontal emphasis, and the rounded terminals help prevent the large forms from feeling harsh at display sizes. Letterforms stay consistent across the set, and the punctuation and figures visually match the same soft, geometric construction seen in the alphabet.
