A clean sans with rounded, geometric underpinnings and consistently even stroke thickness. Curves are smooth and near-circular in letters like O and C, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) keep a crisp, architectural feel. Terminals are largely square and unflared, with generous apertures and open counters that support clarity at text sizes. The lowercase shows simple, contemporary construction with a single-storey a and g, short, controlled ascenders, and compact, readable bowls; numerals are straightforward and evenly proportioned to match the letterforms.
Well-suited to interface typography, product and brand systems that need a neutral sans voice, and signage or wayfinding where open counters help quick recognition. It also works comfortably for general editorial text and presentations that benefit from a clean, contemporary look.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, balancing a slightly friendly roundness with a practical, matter-of-fact rhythm. It reads as calm and utilitarian rather than expressive, making it feel at home in modern interfaces and straightforward editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a versatile, modern workhorse: geometric enough to feel current and systematic, but softened with rounded curves and open forms to maintain readability and an approachable tone in continuous text.
Diagonal strokes (V, W, X, Y, K) are clean and steady, and the joins avoid sharp calligraphic modulation, reinforcing a constructed, geometric voice. Spacing appears comfortable and consistent in the sample text, with clear word shapes and no overly tight joins or cramped counters.
