This sans serif shows a geometric, monoline construction with clean curves and straight-sided strokes. Round letters lean toward near-circular bowls (C, O, Q), while verticals and horizontals stay crisp and even, giving a consistent rhythm across caps and lowercase. Proportions feel balanced and readable: lowercase counters are open, terminals are mostly straight-cut, and joins remain uncomplicated. Numerals follow the same simple, even-stroke logic, with clear differentiation and restrained shaping.
Well-suited to interface labels, product UI, and web typography where clean forms and consistent stroke behavior aid quick scanning. It also fits general editorial use and simple brand systems that need a contemporary sans without strong stylistic quirks, and it can scale up effectively for signage and headlines.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, with a calm, utilitarian clarity. Its smooth geometry and lack of decorative detail give it a straightforward, contemporary voice that can read as both friendly and slightly technical depending on setting and spacing.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose geometric sans that prioritizes clarity and consistency over expressive detailing. Its even stroke treatment and open internal spaces suggest a focus on dependable readability across a range of sizes and contexts.
The uppercase set presents broad, stable forms suited to display sizes, while the lowercase maintains a tidy, functional texture in paragraphs. Curved characters and diagonals (S, V, W, y) remain controlled and consistent, supporting a cohesive look across mixed-case text.
