A clean sans with gently rounded curves and softened stroke endings. Proportions feel balanced and contemporary, with open counters and broadly circular bowls that keep forms airy. Strokes remain even and steady, while joins and shoulders are smooth rather than mechanical. The lowercase shows a straightforward, readable construction with a two-storey “g” and a single-storey “a,” and the overall rhythm stays consistent from text to display sizes.
Works well for interfaces and product copy where straightforward legibility is needed, and it remains comfortable in longer passages for editorial or web text. Its calm, modern presence also fits wayfinding and general signage, and it can support understated branding that prefers a clean, friendly voice.
The tone is modern and approachable, aiming for clarity without feeling sterile. Rounded shaping and open forms give it a friendly, everyday character that suits general-purpose communication.
The design appears intended as a versatile, do-it-all sans that prioritizes readability through open shapes, smooth curves, and restrained detailing. It aims to feel contemporary and welcoming while staying neutral enough for a wide range of applications.
Capitals are simple and geometric-leaning, with wide, stable curves in letters like C, G, O, and Q. Numerals are clear and familiar in structure, with rounded figures and unobtrusive details that keep them legible in running text.
