A rounded, humanist sans with soft terminals and gently modulated curves. Proportions feel broadly even and readable, with open counters and generous interior space in letters like C, O, and e. Stroke endings often show subtle tapering or slight flare, giving the shapes a hand-influenced rhythm without becoming calligraphic. Lowercase forms are straightforward and single‑storey where expected (notably a and g), and the overall texture stays smooth and consistent across text.
Well-suited for interface copy, product copy, and general-purpose editorial text where a neutral-but-friendly sans is desired. Its open forms and steady spacing also make it a good candidate for wayfinding, labels, and branding systems that need a modern tone without harshness.
The font reads as warm and contemporary, with a lightly playful edge from its softened joins and subtly lively terminals. It feels more personable than strictly geometric, suggesting friendliness and ease while remaining crisp enough for everyday communication.
The design appears intended as a versatile, readable sans that balances modern clarity with subtle human warmth. It aims to deliver a smooth text color and familiar letterforms, while using softened terminals and mild idiosyncrasies to keep the voice approachable.
The numerals and capitals maintain the same rounded construction and steady color as the lowercase, supporting a cohesive typographic palette. Curves are clean and stable, while small details (like the hook on j and the slight character in s and t) add personality without disrupting legibility.
