A compact sans with a largely monoline stroke and rounded, elliptical bowls. The letters are drawn with straightforward geometry and smooth curves, with minimal modulation and mostly straight-cut terminals. Proportions feel condensed overall, with tall lowercase relative to capitals and clear, open counters that keep the forms readable. Rounds like C, G, O, and e are soft and even, while verticals remain steady and consistent, giving the set a tidy rhythm in text.
Well-suited to interface copy, labels, navigation, and other information-forward settings where compact width helps fit content into tight layouts. It also works for clean brand systems, packaging, and editorial subheads where a straightforward sans with soft curves can maintain clarity at a range of sizes.
The tone is matter-of-fact and contemporary, aiming for clarity over personality. Its rounded construction adds a mild friendliness, but the overall impression stays pragmatic and editorial rather than expressive or decorative.
The design appears intended as a clear, space-efficient sans for general-purpose typography, balancing strict simplicity with slightly rounded forms to keep long passages feeling approachable.
In the sample text, spacing appears even and controlled, producing a stable texture across multiple lines. Numerals follow the same rounded, monoline logic as the letters, reading as simple and functional in running content.
