A sturdy sans with broad, rounded forms and smooth curves paired with straightforward, flat terminals. Strokes are consistently heavy and even, producing a solid color on the page without noticeable modulation. Counters are generous and open, and the lowercase shows a two-storey “a” and “g,” reinforcing a conventional, highly readable text structure. Proportions feel slightly wide and stable, with circular bowls (o, O) and simple, geometric joins that keep the rhythm calm and predictable across words and lines.
It performs well where clarity and impact are both needed: interface labels, navigation, and product UI, as well as short-to-medium headlines and subheads. The strong stroke weight and open shapes also make it suitable for wayfinding, posters, packaging, and brand systems that need a dependable, modern sans.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its rounded geometry and open counters keep it friendly and accessible rather than severe, making it feel practical and contemporary.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, highly legible sans with a solid, assertive color and a friendly geometric underpinning. It balances straightforward construction with rounded warmth to stay versatile across both display and functional typography.
Uppercase forms read crisp and architectural, while the lowercase maintains a conventional, workhorse texture suited to continuous reading. Figures appear robust and clear, matching the letterforms’ weight and maintaining consistent visual emphasis in mixed alphanumeric settings.
