A clean sans with predominantly rounded, geometric construction and even stroke weight throughout. Curves are smooth and generously proportioned, with wide counters and open apertures that keep letters clear at display and text sizes. Terminals are crisp and mostly horizontal or vertical, while joins stay restrained, producing a calm rhythm and consistent texture across mixed case. Figures are straightforward and modern, with simple, readable shapes that match the letters’ overall geometry.
Well suited to user interfaces, product graphics, and wayfinding where clarity and an even typographic color matter. Its open shapes and steady rhythm also work for editorial subheads, corporate communications, and modern branding systems that need a neutral sans with a slightly rounded feel.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded bowls and open forms. It feels contemporary and pragmatic rather than expressive, lending a dependable, approachable voice to interfaces and everyday branding.
The design appears intended as a versatile, contemporary workhorse: geometric enough to feel current, softened by rounded forms for comfort in extended reading. It prioritizes clear counters and consistent strokes to stay legible across a wide range of sizes and applications.
Uppercase forms read as clean and architectural, while lowercase introduces more humanized curves, especially in the rounded letters. Spacing appears balanced and even in the sample text, supporting continuous reading without drawing attention to individual shapes.
