A wide, rounded sans with smooth, low-contrast strokes and generous horizontal proportions. Curves are built from clean circular and elliptical forms, while joins and terminals stay simple and uncluttered, giving letters a sleek, engineered feel. Counters are open and roomy, spacing reads airy, and the overall rhythm is even across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. Distinctive details include a diagonal tail on the Q, a single-storey a, and rounded, horizontally oriented numeral bowls.
Works best in headlines, brand marks, packaging, and large-format messaging where the wide proportions can create presence without relying on heavy weight. It also suits UI labels and navigation when ample spacing is available, maintaining clarity through open counters and simple construction.
The tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a technical, streamlined look with soft rounding that keeps it from feeling harsh. Its width and calm stroke modulation create a relaxed, expansive voice suited to modern interfaces and brand systems.
Designed to deliver a modern geometric sans voice with a softer edge, prioritizing clean curves, consistency, and an expansive footprint for contemporary display and interface contexts.
The wide set pushes emphasis toward horizontals, which can make lines feel expansive and premium at display sizes. Curved letters like O/C/G and the rounded numerals appear especially consistent, contributing to a cohesive, geometric texture in paragraphs and headings.
