A heavy, geometric sans with broadly circular bowls and smooth, even curves paired with straight, blunt terminals. Strokes appear uniform with minimal modulation, producing a dense, stable texture in both display and paragraph settings. Counters are generous for the weight, and the overall construction favors simple, efficient shapes with consistent rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Well-suited to headlines, branding, and poster typography where a bold, clean presence is needed. The sturdy shapes and open counters also make it effective for signage and UI labels that require quick recognition at a glance.
The font reads as modern and forthright, with a friendly neutrality that feels practical rather than expressive. Its weight and clean geometry give it a confident, no-nonsense tone that still remains approachable.
Designed to deliver a contemporary geometric voice with strong visibility and consistent, simplified letterforms. The intention appears to prioritize clarity and impact while keeping the tone neutral enough for broad commercial and editorial use.
Round letters like O/C/G and the numerals show a strong circular backbone, while straight-sided forms such as E/F/H and the diagonals in V/W/X maintain crisp edges. The lowercase has a straightforward, contemporary feel with compact joins and clear apertures, helping it stay readable even at smaller sizes despite the heavy weight.
