A clean, lightly built sans with monoline strokes, generous counters, and rounded curve construction. Proportions are compact horizontally with a notably tall x-height, producing a steady vertical rhythm and efficient use of space. Curves are smooth and circular, terminals are mostly plain and crisp, and joins stay restrained rather than calligraphic. Uppercase forms feel tidy and engineered, while lowercase maintains clarity through open apertures and simple, unembellished details; numerals follow the same straightforward, rounded logic.
It performs well in interface typography, small-to-medium text settings, and informational layouts where a clean, space-efficient sans is needed. The tall x-height supports readability in captions, data displays, and navigation elements, while the restrained styling keeps longer passages looking orderly.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a quiet precision that reads as technical and orderly rather than expressive. Its light presence and open shapes give it an airy, unobtrusive voice suited to clean interfaces and contemporary branding.
The design appears intended as a neutral, modern workhorse sans: space-conscious, legible, and consistent, with geometric roundness providing a friendly edge without sacrificing a technical feel.
The design emphasizes legibility through open bowls and consistent stroke color, keeping punctuation-like details minimal and avoiding ornamental quirks. The overall texture in text is even and calm, with rounded forms softening the otherwise utilitarian structure.
