A clean, monoline sans with rounded-rectangle construction that gives curves a soft, superelliptical feel. Strokes maintain steady thickness with minimal modulation, and terminals are generally straight or smoothly rounded rather than calligraphic. Counters are generous and forms are open, helping letters stay clear at text sizes; the lowercase shows simple, single-storey shapes with modest, even proportions. Figures are straightforward and highly legible, matching the same rounded, geometric rhythm as the letters.
This design fits well in UI and product typography, where consistent stroke weight and open shapes support clarity across sizes. It also suits straightforward editorial or marketing copy, navigation and wayfinding, and data-forward settings such as dashboards and technical documentation.
The overall tone is modern and neutral, with a mild friendliness coming from the softened curves. It reads as practical and unobtrusive, suitable for interfaces and contemporary branding where clarity matters more than personality.
The letterforms suggest an intention to balance geometric structure with approachable rounding, creating a versatile sans that stays readable while feeling contemporary. The consistent construction and restrained detailing indicate a focus on broad utility across digital and print contexts.
Round letters like O and Q appear built from a squarish oval, reinforcing a systematic, engineered geometry. Diagonal letters (K, V, W, X, Y) keep crisp angles, while the rounded joins and wide counters prevent the texture from feeling harsh.
