A clean sans with broadly rounded geometry and consistent stroke color. Curves are built from near-circular bowls and smooth arcs, while terminals and joins read as crisp and controlled rather than calligraphic. Counters are open and spacious, and the overall proportions feel expansive, giving letters room to breathe in both caps and lowercase. The numeral set follows the same rounded construction, with simple, even forms intended for clear reading.
Well-suited to interface typography, product and web design, and brand systems that need a clean, contemporary voice. The wide, open shapes also make it a good choice for signage and wayfinding, as well as editorial headlines and short to medium passages where clarity and an even texture are priorities.
The tone is modern and approachable, balancing neutrality with a gentle softness from its rounded curves. It feels practical and contemporary rather than stylized, projecting clarity, friendliness, and calm confidence.
The design appears aimed at an all-purpose, contemporary sans that emphasizes smooth, rounded construction and dependable legibility. Its restrained detailing and consistent geometry suggest a focus on versatility across digital and print applications.
Round characters (like O/C/G and the lowercase bowls) establish a strong geometric rhythm, while straight-sided forms (such as E/F/H/N) keep the texture orderly and stable. The sample text shows steady spacing and an even typographic color that remains legible at larger paragraph sizes and headline scales.
