A clean, geometric sans with low-contrast strokes and smoothly rounded curves. Circular forms (C, O, Q, o, e) read as near-perfect rounds with even stroke weight, while joins and terminals stay simple and unembellished. Proportions are tidy and slightly compact, with a modest x-height and clear differentiation between straight-sided letters (H, N, n) and round counters. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, a straightforward e with an open eye, and a short, functional t; overall spacing and rhythm feel even and controlled.
Works well for UI labels, product surfaces, and brand systems that need a modern, dependable sans. The rounded geometry and steady rhythm also suit short-to-medium editorial copy, presentation decks, and signage where quick recognition and consistent texture are important.
The tone is neutral and contemporary, with a friendly approachability driven by round geometry and uncomplicated terminals. It feels practical rather than expressive, suited to interfaces and everyday communication where clarity matters more than personality.
Likely designed as a versatile geometric sans that prioritizes clarity and a smooth, contemporary texture. The shapes aim for broad usability—clean enough for interface work, but warm enough for general branding and display settings.
Numerals are simple and legible, with a rounded 0 and a clean 1; the 4 is open and angular, complementing the otherwise rounded construction. The Q’s diagonal tail and the j’s descender add a mild human touch without breaking the geometric consistency.
