A clean, rounded sans with low-contrast, uniform strokes and softly squared curves. The drawing favors simple geometric construction: circular bowls, smooth arcs, and mostly straight-sided stems with gently rounded joins. Counters are open and generous, and overall spacing feels even and breathable, producing a calm, legible texture in both upper- and lowercase. Numerals follow the same straightforward logic, with clear, uncluttered shapes and consistent stroke behavior.
Well-suited to interfaces, product design, and wayfinding where clarity and a steady rhythm are important. Its rounded geometry also works nicely for contemporary branding systems, headings, and short editorial passages, and it remains readable in mixed-case settings such as dashboards, presentations, and marketing collateral.
The tone is modern and approachable, combining a technical neatness with subtle warmth from its rounded forms. It reads as neutral and versatile rather than expressive, giving copy a tidy, contemporary voice without calling attention to itself.
The design appears intended as a versatile workhorse sans that prioritizes clarity and consistency through simple geometric shapes and open counters. Its restrained detailing suggests a goal of broad applicability across digital and print contexts while maintaining a subtly friendly, modern character.
Distinctive details include a single-story “a” and “g,” a simple “t” with a short crossbar, and a clean “Q” with a small diagonal tail. Uppercase forms are restrained and geometric, with smooth curves on round letters and crisp, straight terminals on letters like E, F, and T, keeping the overall rhythm consistent across sizes.
