A monoline sans with rounded corners and soft, capped terminals throughout. The design is tall and slim with generous internal space and open apertures, giving letters a light, breathable rhythm. Curves are drawn with consistent stroke weight and gentle geometry; bowls are narrow and vertically oriented, while joins stay smooth rather than sharply angular. Details like the single-storey “a” and “g”, the simple, straight-sided “M” and “N”, and the rounded forms in figures create a cohesive, understated construction.
Works well for UI labels, navigation, and compact headings where a light, uncluttered texture is desirable. It also suits contemporary branding, packaging, and signage that benefits from a friendly, rounded voice. In longer text, it’s best used at comfortable sizes and with ample line spacing to preserve its airy spacing and delicate strokes.
The overall tone is calm and approachable, with a clean contemporary feel. Its narrow, lightly drawn strokes and rounded endings read as friendly and slightly whimsical without becoming decorative. The effect is refined and minimalist, suitable for designs that want softness and clarity at the same time.
The design appears intended to provide a clean, contemporary sans with softened edges and a narrow footprint, balancing efficient horizontal space with a gentle, approachable character. Its simplified, rounded construction suggests an emphasis on clarity and modern minimalism rather than strict neutrality.
Capitals and lowercase share a consistent narrow set and even stroke behavior, helping text feel uniform in longer lines. Several glyphs use distinctive, simplified structures (notably the single-storey lowercase forms and the rounded, open “w”), which adds character while keeping the texture restrained.
