A clean, monoline sans with strongly geometric construction and generous internal space. Curves are smooth and circular, with rounded bowls and consistent stroke weight throughout. Uppercase forms feel broad and steady, while lowercase has simple, open shapes and a straightforward, single-storey “g.” Terminals are mostly square-cut but read softly due to the overall rounded proportions, and spacing appears even and uncluttered in text.
This font suits interface copy, dashboards, and product experiences where a clean, steady texture supports fast scanning. It also works well for modern brand systems and straightforward editorial typography, and it can serve signage and wayfinding where simple forms and open counters help at distance.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, aiming for clarity rather than personality. Its geometry and calm rhythm give it a contemporary, slightly technical feel that stays understated and professional in longer passages.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, geometry-led sans that stays clear in continuous reading while remaining versatile for both display and text settings. It prioritizes even rhythm, simple construction, and dependable legibility over stylistic flourishes.
Figures are simple and highly legible, matching the letterforms with open shapes and clear differentiation. The design favors readability through large counters and unambiguous silhouettes, maintaining a consistent texture across mixed-case text.
