A rounded, monoline sans with broad, open proportions and generous spacing. Strokes maintain an even weight with softly curved joins and terminals, giving forms a smooth, continuous feel. Counters are large and open, and many letters lean on circular/elliptical construction (notably O/Q/C and lowercase bowls), producing a clear, airy rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same smooth geometry, with simple, legible shapes and minimal detailing.
Well suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, and brand wordmarks where a wide, open texture can create a contemporary presence. It can also work for UI labels and product or packaging text when a clean, friendly tone is desired, particularly at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, combining a clean, technical neatness with gentle roundness. Its wide stance and open curves make it feel relaxed and friendly rather than tense or formal, lending a calm, modern voice to headlines and interface-style typography.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, geometric sans voice with softened edges—prioritizing openness, smooth curvature, and an easy, approachable texture while remaining clean and functional.
The design emphasizes clarity through open apertures and simplified shapes, with a consistent geometric logic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The wide set and ample interior space make the face read especially well at larger sizes where its smooth curves and rounded terminals are most apparent.
