A clean, geometric sans with largely monoline strokes and smoothly rounded curves paired with crisp terminals. Uppercase forms are simple and constructed, with near-circular round letters and a consistent cap height. Lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g”, a compact “t” with a short crossbar, and open, readable counters throughout. Numerals follow the same restrained geometry with clear, rounded bowls and even weight distribution, giving the set a steady, predictable rhythm in text.
It suits user interfaces, product UI copy, dashboards, and general-purpose system-like typography where consistent color and quick recognition matter. The straightforward geometry also works well for modern branding, wayfinding and signage, and editorial settings that call for a clean, unobtrusive sans.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, with a friendly clarity that feels practical rather than expressive. Its even color and tidy shapes communicate approachability and efficiency, lending a calm, matter-of-fact voice to interfaces and informational typography.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose sans that prioritizes clarity and consistency across sizes, using simple geometric construction and open counters to stay legible in continuous reading and interface contexts.
Spacing appears comfortably open, helping keep word shapes distinct in running text. The design leans on circular geometry for round letters while maintaining straight, stable verticals, producing a balanced mix of softness and structure.
