A clean sans with largely geometric construction and smooth, round curves paired with straight, flat-ended strokes. Proportions feel generously set, with broad round letters and open counters that keep the texture even across lines. The stroke weight is consistent and the joins are crisp, producing a steady rhythm in both the uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same straightforward, contemporary forms, aligning visually with the letters for cohesive text setting.
Well-suited to interface text, product and corporate branding, and wayfinding where clarity at a glance matters. Its even color and open shapes also make it comfortable for paragraphs, while the broad proportions help it perform in headlines and short display lines.
The overall tone is modern and approachable—neutral enough for utilitarian typography, but with a friendly softness from its rounded shapes. It reads as dependable and contemporary without feeling sterile, making it suitable for clear, direct communication.
Designed to deliver a contemporary, highly readable sans that stays calm and consistent across sizes. The emphasis appears to be on clear geometry, open counters, and a balanced rhythm for versatile use in both editorial and digital contexts.
Round forms like O/C/G show smooth, continuous curves, while letters such as a/e/s maintain open, readable interiors. The sample text demonstrates stable spacing and an even typographic color, holding clarity across longer passages.
