This typeface is a sturdy sans with broadly geometric construction and generously rounded curves. Strokes are even and substantial, with smooth joins and minimal modulation, producing a consistent, blocky rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase. Counters are mostly open and simple, and the lowercase shows compact, efficient shapes with short ascenders/descenders and straightforward terminals. Overall spacing reads even and controlled, supporting dense setting without looking cramped.
It performs well in headlines and subheads where a strong, clean voice is needed, and it remains clear in short UI labels, buttons, and navigation. The even stroke weight and open shapes also make it suitable for signage and brand systems that require high clarity at a distance or at smaller sizes.
The tone is modern and pragmatic, with a friendly neutrality that feels dependable rather than expressive. Its heavy, simplified forms give it an assertive presence while staying approachable and easy to read.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient, contemporary sans with strong readability and a confident silhouette. The emphasis is on clear geometry, consistent stroke behavior, and straightforward letterforms that reproduce reliably across a wide range of everyday layout contexts.
The uppercase has a uniform, sign-like regularity, while the lowercase stays utilitarian with single-storey-style simplicity where applicable (e.g., compact bowls and plain finishes). Numerals appear sturdy and clearly differentiated, matching the same rounded, low-detail logic as the letters.
