A clean sans with rounded bowls and broadly circular construction, paired with straight-sided verticals and diagonals for a balanced, contemporary texture. Strokes are even and consistent, with smooth curves, tidy joins, and largely horizontal/vertical terminals that keep the letterforms crisp. Counters are open and generous, and the spacing reads steady and unobtrusive in text, with clear differentiation between similar shapes across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
This font suits interface copy, product and brand systems, and general-purpose editorial typography where a clean sans is needed without calling attention to itself. Its open shapes and steady rhythm make it comfortable for paragraphs, captions, and signage-style labels.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, with a mild friendliness from the rounded forms and open counters. It feels practical and straightforward rather than expressive, aiming for clarity and calm in continuous reading.
The design appears intended as an all-purpose, contemporary sans that prioritizes legibility and visual neutrality. Its geometry and consistent detailing suggest a focus on dependable everyday typography for both display lines and running text.
Lowercase forms show a simple, single-storey construction where expected (notably the ‘g’), supporting an approachable, contemporary feel. Numerals are plainspoken and readable, matching the letterforms’ circular geometry and consistent stroke behavior.
