A heavy, geometric sans with broad, even strokes and softly rounded curves. Counters are generous and mostly circular/elliptical, while terminals are clean and blunt, giving the letters a sturdy, block-like presence. Curves transition smoothly into straights (notably in C, G, S, and the bowls of B/P/R), and joins stay simple and unornamented. The overall spacing reads solid and stable, with clear, high-impact word shapes in text settings.
Well-suited to headlines and large-size display where strong weight and simple geometry can carry the message quickly. It also fits branding, packaging, and signage that need a clean, friendly impact and consistent shapes across letters and numerals.
The tone is bold and approachable rather than delicate or technical. Its rounded geometry and no-nonsense construction feel contemporary and energetic, projecting clarity and confidence for attention-driven messages.
Designed to deliver maximum clarity and presence through simplified geometric forms, smooth curves, and consistent stroke weight. The overall construction prioritizes bold readability and a contemporary, approachable voice for prominent typographic applications.
Uppercase forms are strong and compact, with a notably simple, geometric G and a wide, symmetrical O/Q family. Lowercase stays similarly geometric, with single-storey a and g contributing to an informal, modern rhythm. Numerals are robust and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ circular construction and uniform weight.
