A clean, monoline sans with gently rounded curves and largely uniform stroke thickness. Proportions feel balanced and workmanlike, with open counters and uncomplicated construction across both cases. Uppercase forms are steady and geometric-leaning without becoming rigid, while lowercase shows simple, readable shapes with minimal quirks and a single-storey “g”. Numerals are plain and sturdy, matching the letterforms with consistent weight and spacing.
It suits interface copy, product text, and general-purpose editorial use where consistent texture and quick letter recognition matter. The straightforward capitals and sturdy figures also make it a good choice for labels, wayfinding-style layouts, dashboards, and presentation typography.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, prioritizing clarity over personality. It reads as practical and unobtrusive, suitable for information-first settings where the type should stay out of the way.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose sans focused on clear reproduction and predictable spacing, aiming for broad usability across text sizes and pragmatic communication contexts.
Curves are smooth and restrained, with moderate rounding that keeps the texture friendly without looking soft. Diacritics and special characters are not shown; the visible set emphasizes a consistent, no-nonsense rhythm in both display and text lines.
