A clean sans with a thin, even stroke and a strongly geometric construction. Curves are smooth and near-circular (notably in C, O, Q, and the bowls of b/p), paired with straight-sided stems and simple joins. Terminals are mostly clean-cut with subtly softened corners, keeping the texture light and open. Uppercase forms feel restrained and orderly, while the lowercase uses single-storey a and g, a compact shoulder on r, and a tall, simple t with a short crossbar. Numerals are equally streamlined, with a curved-bottom 2 and a clean, open 4, maintaining consistent rhythm across the set.
Well-suited to interface typography, product branding, and clean headline work where a light, modern presence is desired. The open shapes and simple letterforms also make it a good option for short-to-medium editorial settings and signage in controlled viewing conditions.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, projecting clarity and approachability rather than strong personality. Its geometric calm reads as modern and design-forward, with a gentle friendliness coming from the rounded bowls and open counters.
The design appears intended as a pared-back geometric sans that prioritizes clarity, simplicity, and a contemporary look. It aims for a neutral, versatile voice with smooth curves and consistent stroke logic for a polished, modern reading experience.
Spacing appears comfortable and even, producing an airy text color in the paragraph sample. Diacritics are not shown; the specimen focuses on basic Latin letters and digits, emphasizing a straightforward, no-frills character.
