A clean, rounded sans with softly squared curves and smooth, continuous strokes. Curved letters lean toward superelliptical geometry, giving bowls and counters a gently rectangular roundness rather than pure circles. Terminals are mostly clean and straightforward, with occasional subtle rounding that keeps joins from feeling sharp. Proportions are balanced and readable, with open apertures and generous internal space; the overall rhythm is even and consistent across upper- and lowercase. Numerals follow the same calm, rounded construction and sit comfortably with the text.
It suits interface typography and product design where clarity at small-to-medium sizes matters, and it can also handle headings and branding that benefit from a modern, softened geometric character. The steady paragraph color makes it appropriate for editorial layouts, short-form reading, and practical signage or wayfinding where a neutral, approachable tone is desired.
The tone is modern and approachable, with a quiet, matter-of-fact clarity. Its softened geometry reads friendly without becoming playful, supporting a calm, contemporary voice.
The design appears intended to provide a contemporary, highly legible sans with softened geometry—combining an engineered, rounded-rectangular construction with a restrained, workhorse texture for everyday communication.
Uppercase forms present stable, simple silhouettes, while the lowercase maintains a tidy, uncluttered texture in paragraphs. The rounded-rectangle logic is especially apparent in letters with bowls and shoulders, producing a cohesive, engineered feel that still remains warm.
