A clean, geometric sans with monolinear strokes and a predominantly circular construction in the bowls and counters. Curves are smooth and evenly tensioned, while straight stems and horizontals stay crisp, giving the design a precise, engineered rhythm. The lowercase shows simple, open forms with generous apertures (notably in c, e, and s), and round letters like o and q read as near-perfect circles; the q has a distinct descender tail. Overall spacing appears balanced and regular, supporting clear word shapes in continuous text.
Well suited for user interfaces, product labels, dashboards, and other clarity-first applications where consistent shapes and open counters support quick scanning. It can also handle modern branding and short headlines effectively, and remains comfortable in editorial-style paragraphs at larger text sizes.
The tone is contemporary and restrained, with a friendly clarity that feels at home in digital and product-oriented settings. Its geometric roundness softens the overall impression while the consistent stroke treatment keeps it professional and matter-of-fact.
Designed to provide a neutral, modern sans that prioritizes legibility through geometric construction, open apertures, and even stroke behavior. The overall intent reads as a versatile workhorse with a contemporary, slightly friendly voice rather than a strongly stylized display personality.
Capitals are straightforward and highly legible, with a wide, circular O and a clean G that maintains a simple internal bar. Numerals follow the same geometric logic, with rounded 0 and 8 and open, readable forms suited to interface and informational use.
