A geometric sans with smooth circular bowls and a consistent, even stroke. Counters are generous and largely round (notably in O, o, e), with open apertures that keep letters clear at text sizes. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, and the overall construction leans on simple geometry with minimal contrast. Uppercase forms feel tidy and balanced, while the lowercase shows a high, spacious x-height that increases presence and legibility; numerals match the same straightforward, rounded construction.
Well-suited for user interfaces, dashboards, and general product typography where clarity and consistent rhythm matter. The large x-height and open counters also make it effective for short headlines, wayfinding, and simple brand applications that need a clean, modern sans.
The font reads as contemporary and approachable, with a calm, matter-of-fact tone. Its rounded geometry and open shapes give it a friendly, everyday modernity rather than a sharp or formal voice.
Designed to deliver a neutral, highly legible geometric sans voice with friendly roundness and dependable consistency across text and display settings.
Spacing appears even and controlled, producing a steady rhythm in paragraphs. The circular forms and consistent curves give the face a cohesive, system-like feel suited to interfaces and brand systems that favor clarity over personality-driven quirks.
