A clean sans with geometric construction and evenly weighted strokes. Curves are smooth and round (notably in C, O, Q, and e), paired with flat, horizontal terminals and straightforward joins. Proportions feel balanced with a clear, readable lowercase and generous internal counters; the overall rhythm is steady and consistent across letters and numerals. The figures are simple and open, with rounded bowls and clear distinctions between similar shapes.
Well-suited for user interfaces, product and corporate branding, and general-purpose editorial typography where a neutral voice is needed. Its clean shapes and open counters also make it a solid option for signage and presentation materials at a range of sizes.
The tone is neutral and contemporary, aiming for clarity rather than personality. It reads as practical and dependable, with a slightly technical, system-like feel that stays unobtrusive in longer text.
Designed to provide a versatile, modern sans for everyday communication, prioritizing legibility and a calm, professional texture. The geometry and restrained detailing suggest an intention to work broadly across digital and print contexts without drawing attention away from the content.
Letterforms favor simple geometry and restrained details: the uppercase set appears broad and stable, while the lowercase maintains open apertures and uncomplicated silhouettes. The overall color on the page is even, producing a tidy texture in paragraphs and strong clarity in headings.
