A wide, monoline sans with generous proportions and a notably tall x-height. Strokes stay even and clean, with softly rounded joins and terminals that keep the overall texture smooth rather than sharp. Curves read as circular and open, with broad counters in letters like O, D, and P; apertures in forms such as C and S feel uncluttered. The rhythm is airy due to the width and roomy internal spaces, while verticals remain steady and upright for a consistent, orderly silhouette.
This font performs well in interfaces and product typography where clarity at a glance matters, and it also scales nicely for headlines and poster work where its wide stance can carry presence. The open counters and steady stroke weight support longer passages in marketing copy, captions, and wayfinding-style applications.
The tone is contemporary and approachable, leaning more practical than expressive. Its breadth and open shapes create a relaxed, confident feel that reads as calm, clear, and non-intimidating.
The design intention appears focused on a clear, contemporary sans for general-purpose communication, combining geometric roundness with a comfortable, readable texture. Its wide stance suggests it’s meant to project openness and stability while remaining neutral enough to pair with many visual systems.
The uppercase set presents simple, classic constructions with straightforward diagonals and clean geometry, while the lowercase maintains a compact, highly readable structure with minimal stylistic quirks. Numerals follow the same smooth, open construction, blending comfortably with text.
