A clean sans with largely uniform stroke weight and gently rounded curves. Letterforms lean toward geometric construction, with circular bowls (O, Q) and smooth, even arcs in C/G and the lowercase. Terminals are mostly straight and crisp, while joins stay controlled and uncluttered; counters remain open and readable at display sizes. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g”, compact shoulders, and a straightforward, utilitarian rhythm; numerals are simple and sturdy with clear differentiation.
Well suited to interface and web typography where clarity and an even texture are priorities. Its clean geometry also works for contemporary branding, packaging, and wayfinding, and it can serve as a dependable workhorse for headings and short-to-medium editorial passages.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, balancing neutrality with a mild friendliness from its rounded geometry. It reads confident and straightforward rather than expressive, making it feel contemporary and broadly usable.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose modern sans that prioritizes legibility, consistency, and a contemporary look. Its simplified forms and open counters suggest it was drawn to perform reliably across a wide range of everyday design contexts without drawing attention to itself.
Proportions are steady across caps and lowercase, with generous internal space that supports clarity. The shapes avoid quirky details, favoring consistent curves and predictable spacing, which helps maintain a calm texture in longer lines of text.
