A heavy, wide sans with compact counters and rounded, softly squared curves that keep the forms dense and high-impact. Stroke endings are clean and largely orthogonal, with minimal modulation and a consistent, engineered rhythm across the set. Capitals are broad and stable, while the lowercase is compact with sturdy bowls and short, practical terminals; the overall texture reads dark and even in continuous text. Numerals follow the same wide, solid construction, favoring simple silhouettes and generous width over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where large sizes benefit from its wide stance and compact counters. It can work for short UI labels or signage when strong emphasis is needed, but longer passages will typically require careful line length and spacing to avoid a heavy, crowded texture.
The tone is assertive and energetic, with a contemporary, utilitarian feel that still comes across as approachable thanks to the rounded shaping. Its strong presence suggests performance and emphasis rather than refinement, giving it a straightforward, no-nonsense voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a stable, wide footprint and simplified, geometric construction. It prioritizes clarity at display sizes and a confident, contemporary presence over finesse or delicate detail.
In paragraph settings the weight and width create strong word shapes and a dense gray value, making it best used with ample spacing and generous margins. The round letters (like O/C/G) and bowl forms (like a/e/s) share a consistent curvature that reinforces a cohesive, geometric character.
