A slim, rounded sans with a consistent, even stroke and gently softened terminals. Curves are built from smooth circular/elliptical forms, giving letters like O, C, and G a clean geometric feel, while straights remain crisp and unembellished. Proportions are compact with relatively small lowercase bodies compared to the caps, and the overall rhythm is tidy and spacious thanks to generous interior counters and restrained detailing. Figures follow the same light, simple construction, with clear, uncluttered shapes.
Best suited to display sizes where the fine stroke and open shapes can breathe—headlines, brand marks, editorial titling, packaging, and short UI labels. It also works well for airy layouts that need a light, modern texture without drawing attention away from imagery.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, with an understated friendliness from the rounded geometry. Its light touch and calm rhythm suggest clarity and restraint rather than assertiveness, making it feel refined, fresh, and slightly delicate.
The design appears intended to provide a minimal, geometric sans that feels approachable rather than clinical. By pairing smooth round forms with simple, unornamented construction, it aims for a contemporary voice that stays clean and versatile in headline-driven design.
Distinctive moments include a single-storey lowercase “a” and a simple, looped “g,” reinforcing the geometric, approachable character. The thin strokes and open apertures keep forms legible in larger settings while emphasizing elegance over density.
