A clean sans with geometric construction and softly rounded curves. Strokes are even and consistent, with squared-off terminals that keep edges crisp while maintaining a smooth overall rhythm. The uppercase is broad and stable with round bowls (C, G, O) and a straightforward, low-contrast feel; the lowercase follows a simple, contemporary model with open apertures and compact joins. Figures are clear and utilitarian, with simple forms that match the letterset and hold up well at text and display sizes.
Well-suited to interface typography, product copy, and general-purpose editorial layouts where a consistent, even texture supports long reading. The clear shapes and robust numerals also make it a strong choice for wayfinding, labels, dashboards, and straightforward brand systems that want a neutral, modern sans.
The tone is modern and pragmatic, aiming for clarity over personality. Its rounded geometry adds a mild friendliness, while the firm terminals and even texture keep it professional and restrained.
The design appears intended as a versatile workhorse sans: simple geometry, consistent stroke behavior, and highly legible counters to perform reliably across many sizes and contexts without calling attention to itself.
The set shows consistent circularity in curved glyphs and a steady baseline and cap-height rhythm. Letters like a, g, and q use uncomplicated, single-storey shapes that reinforce an approachable, contemporary look, and punctuation such as the ampersand reads bold and graphic in the same stroke logic.
