A clean, geometric sans with largely monoline strokes and circular/elliptical construction in the bowls. Curves are smooth and open, terminals read as crisp and unadorned, and joins stay restrained rather than calligraphic. Capitals feel broad and stable with generous counters, while lowercase forms keep a straightforward, contemporary rhythm. Numerals are similarly simple and highly legible, with rounded shapes and even spacing.
Works well for user interfaces, dashboards, and product typography where clarity and steady rhythm are important. It also suits signage and wayfinding at moderate sizes thanks to open counters and clean shapes. For branding and presentations, it supports a contemporary, no-nonsense aesthetic and pairs easily with more expressive secondary typefaces.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, leaning toward a quietly technical and functional voice rather than expressive or decorative. Its open forms and restrained details: feel clear, matter-of-fact, and contemporary, suitable for interfaces and brand systems that want clarity without personality overload.
Designed to provide a dependable, contemporary sans with geometric structure and high everyday readability. The restrained detailing and even stroke behavior suggest an intention toward versatile, system-friendly typography for both display and text use.
Round letters like O/C/G/Q show smooth, near-circular geometry and consistent stroke thickness, and the diagonal characters (V/W/X/Y) maintain a crisp, engineered feel. The lowercase is uncluttered, and the dotted i/j use simple square-like dots, reinforcing the minimal, systematic look.
