A clean, geometric sans with monoline strokes and subtly rounded corners that give letters a softly squared, superelliptical feel. Curves are smooth and controlled, with open apertures and generous counters that keep the texture airy in text. Terminals tend toward straight, crisp cuts, while joins and shoulders stay restrained and consistent. Uppercase forms read simple and architectural; lowercase maintains a straightforward, contemporary construction with compact, uncluttered details.
Well-suited for interface typography, product labeling, and wayfinding where clean shapes and open interiors aid quick recognition. It also fits contemporary branding systems that need a neutral, geometric voice, and works comfortably for short-to-medium editorial or instructional text where a quiet, consistent rhythm is preferred.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, leaning friendly due to the softened geometry. It feels calm and utilitarian rather than expressive, supporting clarity and an unobtrusive reading experience. The rounded-rectangle influence adds a mild warmth without becoming playful.
Likely designed to provide a versatile, contemporary sans that balances strict geometry with softened corners for a more approachable finish. The aim appears to be reliable legibility across mixed-case text and numerals while maintaining a crisp, modern visual identity.
Figures follow the same simplified geometry as the letters, with clear, uncluttered shapes that suit UI and informational settings. In continuous text, spacing and rhythm appear even, producing a tidy, contemporary color with minimal visual noise.
