A compact, heavy sans with rounded outer curves and mostly blunt terminals. Forms are built from broad, even strokes with minimal contrast, producing dense counters and a strong silhouette. Curves are generously softened (notably in C, G, O, S, and the bowls of B/P/R), while joins and apexes stay fairly squared and sturdy. Spacing and proportions feel tight and economical, with a large x-height impression and short extenders that keep words blocky and cohesive.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and short statements where maximum punch is needed—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand marks. It can work for brief subheads or callouts, but the dense, compact counters suggest using it at larger sizes rather than long-form text.
The overall tone is assertive and high-energy, with a friendly, slightly playful softness coming from the rounded curves. It reads as bold and attention-grabbing without feeling sharp or aggressive, giving it an approachable, poster-like voice.
The design appears intended to deliver strong, compact impact with a clean sans structure and softened curves for approachability. It prioritizes solid, uniform stroke weight and simple geometry to keep letterforms bold and easily recognizable in display settings.
The numerals are wide and weighty, matching the letterforms closely for consistent color in mixed copy. The lowercase shows simplified, sturdy shapes (single-storey-style silhouettes where applicable), reinforcing a utilitarian, no-nonsense rhythm suited to big sizes.
