A restrained monoline sans with tall proportions and generous interior space. Curves are built from smooth, rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a softly squared, superelliptical feel rather than a purely circular one. Strokes stay even and consistent, with simple, clean terminals and minimal detailing. Letterforms read clearly at text sizes, with open apertures and tidy joins that keep the rhythm calm and orderly.
Well suited to interface typography, product copy, and informational layouts where a steady, unobtrusive texture is desired. It can also serve in editorial settings that favor a clean, contemporary voice, and in signage or labeling where clarity and consistency matter more than expressiveness.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic—quietly modern without calling attention to itself. Its rounded geometry adds a gentle friendliness, while the streamlined construction keeps the voice sober and professional.
The design appears intended to deliver a clear, modern sans optimized for straightforward communication, using superelliptical rounding to soften the forms while preserving a precise, systematic feel.
The alphabet shows consistent, simplified construction across curves and diagonals, supporting an even texture in paragraphs. Numerals follow the same plainspoken, monoline logic, matching the text color without decorative quirks.
