A clean sans serif with largely geometric construction and even stroke weight. Curves are smooth and round, with generous apertures and uncomplicated joins, giving the shapes a clear, open rhythm. Uppercase forms read sturdy and simple, while the lowercase uses a single-storey “a” and “g” that keep the texture friendly and contemporary. Terminals are mostly flat and decisive, and the figures are plain and highly legible, with a straightforward, utilitarian feel.
Well suited for interface copy, product UI, and informational design where clarity at a range of sizes matters. It also fits contemporary branding systems, wayfinding, and editorial layouts that want a neutral sans with a slightly friendly, geometric character.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, leaning toward a contemporary tech and UI sensibility rather than expressive or decorative. Its rounded geometry softens the voice slightly, keeping it approachable while still feeling professional and efficient.
The design appears intended as a dependable general-purpose sans: simple geometry, consistent stroke behavior, and unobtrusive letterforms optimized for clarity and modern usage across display and text contexts.
The font maintains consistent proportions and spacing, producing an even color in paragraph settings. Round letters like O/C/G and the lowercase bowls show a stable, circular logic, while diagonals (V/W/Y/K) remain clean and restrained.
