A clean, geometric sans with broad proportions and an even, steady stroke. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular bowls, while terminals are crisp and mostly squared, creating a clear, contemporary rhythm. Counters are open and generous, and round letters (C, O, Q, G) read especially smooth and stable. The lowercase shows straightforward construction with simple, uncluttered joins and consistent verticals, producing a uniform texture in text.
Well-suited to contemporary branding systems, headlines, and display typography where a wide, open look is desirable. The clean construction and even texture also make it a strong candidate for interface labels, navigation, and signage where quick recognition and consistency matter.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, balancing neutrality with a slightly friendly softness from the rounded forms. It feels confident and utilitarian rather than decorative, with a clear, no-nonsense voice that remains warm enough for everyday communication.
The design appears intended as a modern, general-purpose sans that prioritizes clarity and a smooth geometric character. Its wide stance and open shapes suggest an emphasis on legibility and a calm, contemporary presence across both single words and multi-line settings.
In the sample text the letterforms maintain consistent color across lines, supporting clarity at larger sizes. The wide set and open counters give it an airy feel, helping prevent dense blocks of text from looking cramped.
