A monolinear sans with geometric construction and softly rounded curves. Bowls and counters are near-circular, with smooth joins and minimal modulation. Terminals are clean and mostly horizontal/vertical, giving a crisp, contemporary texture. Uppercase forms are straightforward and balanced, while lowercase keeps simple single-storey shapes (notably a and g), open apertures, and even spacing that maintains a steady rhythm in text.
Performs well for interface and product text where a clean, contemporary sans is needed, and also scales nicely for headings thanks to its clear shapes and simple construction. Its neutral rhythm makes it suitable for branding systems, signage, and editorial layouts that prioritize legibility and a modern voice.
The overall tone is modern and neutral with a mild friendliness coming from the round forms. It feels straightforward and functional rather than expressive, suited to designs that need clarity without looking rigid.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose, contemporary sans built from clear geometric primitives. It aims for broad usability and consistent texture, balancing rational structure with subtle warmth from rounded forms.
The numerals follow the same geometric logic, with a rounded 0 and a clean, simple 1; curves across 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9 stay smooth and consistent. Diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are sharp and tidy, adding contrast to the otherwise rounded palette.
