A rounded sans with consistently smooth curves and softly finished stroke ends. Forms are built from circular and elliptical geometry, with open apertures and generous interior counters that keep letters clear at smaller sizes. The overall color is even and calm, with relatively broad proportions and stable verticals; joins stay simple and un-fussy, and bowls tend toward near-circular shapes. Numerals follow the same rounded logic, with clear, distinct silhouettes and balanced spacing.
Well suited to UI labels, product interfaces, and on-screen reading where open counters and rounded shapes help clarity. It also performs nicely in brand systems and marketing headlines that want a modern, personable voice, as well as packaging and editorial settings that benefit from a clean, soft-edged sans.
The tone is friendly and contemporary, leaning approachable rather than technical. Rounded corners and open shapes give it an easy, conversational feel that reads as welcoming and lightly playful without becoming quirky or decorative.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, human-friendly sans that balances geometric construction with softened terminals for warmth. It prioritizes legibility and an even typographic rhythm while keeping a distinct rounded character that differentiates it from sharper neo-grotesques.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent geometric logic, producing a steady texture in paragraphs. Curved letters (C, G, S, O/Q) read especially smooth and continuous, and the overall spacing supports comfortable, low-friction reading in longer text.
