A sturdy geometric sans with a monoline feel and generous proportions. Curves are built from broad circular forms, with rounded joins and subtly softened terminals that keep the heavy strokes from feeling harsh. Counters are large and open, and the overall spacing reads even and calm, giving the alphabet a steady rhythm. Diagonals in letters like A, V, W, X, and Y are clean and direct, while bowls and rounds (C, G, O, Q, 0) stay smooth and consistent.
It performs best in display contexts where a strong, friendly sans is needed—headlines, brand marks, packaging, posters, and signage. The clear shapes and open counters also make it workable for short blocks of copy or UI labels when a bold, contemporary voice is desired.
The tone is modern and approachable, combining solid weight with friendly rounding. It feels confident and straightforward rather than technical, making it well suited to clear, upbeat messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean geometric sans that reads friendly and contemporary at impact sizes, emphasizing simplicity, clarity, and consistent rounded structure across letters and figures.
Figures are simple and highly legible, with rounded geometry that matches the capitals and lowercase. The sample text shows good clarity at large sizes, with a strong presence and minimal visual noise across long lines.
