A clean, geometric sans with smooth, circular bowls and largely uniform stroke thickness. Curves are round and steady, while joins and terminals stay crisp and uncluttered, producing a highly even rhythm. Proportions feel balanced and straightforward, with open apertures and simple, legible numerals that align well with the uppercase forms.
It works well for interface copy, product and corporate communications, and signage where steady legibility and an even typographic color are priorities. The clean geometry also suits contemporary branding and editorial layouts, from subheads to short blocks of text, as well as slides and informational graphics.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, projecting clarity and practicality over personality. Its geometric calm reads as dependable and matter-of-fact, with a subtle technical flavor that suits informational and interface-forward contexts.
The font appears designed to deliver a versatile, no-nonsense sans for everyday typography—prioritizing clean geometry, consistent rhythm, and dependable readability across display and text settings.
Counters are generous and consistent, supporting clarity at a range of sizes. The design avoids decorative quirks, relying instead on stable geometry and clean spacing to carry the texture in paragraphs and headlines.
