A clean sans with gently humanist shaping and a balanced, even texture. Curves are smooth and fairly round, with open counters and clear apertures that keep letters from closing up in text. Strokes are straightforward with subtle modulation, and terminals are mostly plain with soft rounding rather than sharp calligraphic cuts. Proportions feel slightly variable from glyph to glyph—wide rounds (O, Q) and more compact forms (E, F, T) create a natural rhythm without looking irregular.
It works well for interface copy, documents, and editorial layouts where a steady, readable sans is needed. The open forms and even rhythm also suit signage and product labeling that must stay clear at a glance, while still feeling approachable.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, with a friendly practicality rather than a geometric or technical chill. It reads as confident and unshowy, suited to straightforward communication where clarity matters more than personality.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose sans optimized for clarity and consistent texture across mixed-case text. Its restrained detailing and open letterforms suggest a focus on everyday usability across print and screen contexts.
The lowercase includes a single-storey “g” and simple, sturdy forms for “a”, “e”, and “t”, supporting legibility in running text. Numerals appear clear and modern, with open, distinct shapes that should hold up well at a range of sizes.
