A rounded geometric sans with smooth, continuous curves and low-contrast strokes that read as evenly weighted. Letterforms are broad and generously spaced, with open apertures and large, oval counters that keep the texture airy. Terminals tend to be softly rounded, and the overall construction favors circular and elliptical geometry over calligraphic modulation. The tall x-height and simplified joins create a clear, consistent rhythm across mixed-case text and numerals.
It performs well where clarity and a modern, rounded voice are desired—UI labels, dashboards, wayfinding, product branding, and large-format headlines. The wide proportions and open counters help maintain legibility in short-to-medium text, especially in digital contexts where a clean, friendly sans is preferred.
The font feels contemporary and approachable, combining a tech-forward, streamlined look with soft, friendly rounding. Its wide, open shapes give it an easygoing confidence that suggests modern interfaces, product design, and clean branding rather than formal editorial tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric sans that balances precision with softness. By pairing rounded terminals and open counters with broad, stable proportions, it aims for high clarity and a distinctly modern, interface-ready personality.
Distinctive features include a single-storey “a” and “g,” a broad, rounded “e” with a level crossbar, and numerals that echo the same oval geometry (notably the stacked, rounded “8” and the open, curved “2” and “3”). Uppercase forms maintain a geometric steadiness, while the lowercase introduces slightly more conversational warmth without breaking the overall system.
