A sturdy geometric sans with smooth, round bowls and clean, monoline strokes. Curves are drawn from near-circular forms, with open apertures and generous counters that keep the letters legible at display sizes. Terminals are mostly squared or softly cut, and joins stay crisp, giving the design a neat, contemporary rhythm. Uppercase proportions feel stable and even, while the lowercase is simple and compact with straightforward construction.
Well-suited to headlines, logos, packaging, and short blocks of copy where a bold, friendly sans presence is needed. It should perform especially well in UI labels, wayfinding, and marketing graphics where quick recognition and clean shapes are priorities.
The overall tone is friendly and contemporary, projecting clarity and confidence without feeling severe. Its rounded geometry reads approachable and slightly playful, but the consistent stroke weight and tidy spacing keep it grounded and professional.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern geometric sans that balances friendliness with clarity—rounded enough to feel approachable, but disciplined enough for crisp, high-impact communication.
The figures are simple and highly readable, with round forms (0, 8, 9) matching the letter bowls, and straight-sided forms (1, 4, 7) keeping a clean, utilitarian feel. The lowercase “a” is single-storey, reinforcing an informal, modern voice.
