A clean sans with broadly geometric construction and smoothly rounded bowls. Strokes are even and crisp, with squared terminals on many forms and minimal modulation. Counters are open and the spacing reads generous, giving the alphabet an airy, straightforward rhythm. Uppercase forms are simple and stable, while the lowercase keeps a plain, workmanlike structure with clear joins and a consistent baseline.
Well suited to interface labels, dashboards, and product UI where clarity and a calm texture matter. Its open shapes and simple construction also work for wayfinding and signage, as well as contemporary branding and headline settings that need a clean, dependable voice.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, leaning neutral rather than expressive. Its rounded geometry and uncluttered shapes feel friendly and contemporary, while the restrained detailing keeps it practical and matter-of-fact.
Designed to provide a versatile, no-nonsense sans with geometric influence and high legibility across mixed-case text. The restrained details and even texture suggest an emphasis on clarity, consistency, and broad applicability rather than stylistic flourish.
The figures match the letterforms in simplicity and clarity, with straightforward shapes that align well in text. The sample paragraph shows steady color and smooth flow at display sizes, with punctuation and mixed-case text remaining easy to scan.
