A clean sans with rounded terminals and softened joins that give the strokes a gently sculpted feel. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular forms, while straight strokes keep a steady, even rhythm; corners tend to be eased rather than sharp. Proportions favor a large x-height with compact ascenders and descenders, and counters stay open for clarity in text. The overall color is even and readable, with a straightforward, contemporary skeleton and subtle humanist modulation in details like the tails and hooks.
This font suits interface typography, product copy, and general-purpose editorial settings where a steady rhythm and open counters support comfortable reading. Its friendly geometry also works well for lightweight branding, packaging, and signage that benefit from a clean but not overly rigid sans.
The tone is modern and approachable, pairing functional clarity with a mild warmth from the rounded endings and open shapes. It reads as friendly and practical rather than technical or severe, making it feel inviting in both short UI labels and longer passages.
The design appears intended as a versatile, everyday sans that emphasizes legibility and calm consistency while adding a touch of warmth through rounded terminals and open, geometric counters.
Distinctive cues include a single-storey lowercase “a,” a curved tail on the uppercase “Q,” and rounded, slightly flared stroke endings that soften the texture of paragraphs. Numerals appear straightforward and legible, matching the letterforms’ smooth curves and open interiors.
