A clean sans with predominantly geometric construction: round counters, smooth curves, and straight-sided verticals that keep strokes even and consistent. Terminals are largely horizontal or vertical and finish crisply, with minimal modulation and a steady rhythm across caps and lowercase. The lowercase forms are open and simple, with a single-storey “a” and “g”, compact joins, and straightforward, utilitarian punctuation-like shapes in the numerals. Overall spacing and proportions read balanced and contemporary, with a slightly engineered, circular logic in letters like C, O, Q, and S.
Well-suited to interface typography, product UI, dashboards, and general-purpose editorial settings where clarity and consistency matter. The even color and open shapes also make it a solid choice for wayfinding, labels, and presentation decks at a range of sizes.
The tone is neutral and modern, leaning friendly due to the round forms and uncomplicated shapes. It feels practical and approachable rather than expressive, with a mild tech/UX character that stays out of the way in continuous reading.
The design appears intended as a versatile, workhorse sans that prioritizes clarity, regular rhythm, and a contemporary geometric feel. Its restrained details suggest a focus on broad usability across digital and print contexts without stylistic distraction.
Caps are broad and stable with generous interior space, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation (notably between i/j/l and n/h). Numerals are simple and legible with a clean, contemporary “2” and rounded “3/8/9”, supporting interface and editorial use without calling attention to themselves.
