This sans serif shows monoline strokes with smoothly rounded bowls and a predominantly geometric construction. Curves are close to circular, with crisp joins and minimal modulation, producing an even, steady texture in text. Counters are open and roomy, and the letterforms keep a straightforward rhythm with clear differentiation between similar shapes (notably the round letters and the numerals). Terminals are clean and unadorned, and the overall spacing reads airy and controlled, lending clarity at both display and paragraph sizes.
It suits user interfaces and product typography where clarity and consistency are important, and it also works well for brand systems that need a neutral, contemporary sans. The clean geometry makes it effective for headings, captions, and general editorial layouts, and the clear numerals support dashboards, wayfinding, and informational graphics.
The overall tone is contemporary and restrained, with a calm, matter-of-fact voice. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than severe, making it feel quietly friendly while still reading as precise and professional.
The design appears intended as a versatile, general-purpose sans with geometric influences, prioritizing clarity, balanced proportions, and a smooth, modern texture in both display and continuous reading.
The lowercase presents a simple, modern skeleton with rounded forms and uncomplicated terminals, and the numerals follow the same geometric logic with smooth curves and clear silhouettes. In running text, the even stroke color and open counters support a clean, uncluttered reading experience.
