A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and a compact internal rhythm. The forms mix straight, firmly horizontal/vertical strokes with generously rounded bowls and corners, producing a smooth, contemporary texture. Stroke contrast is subtle but visible in places where curves and joins thicken, while terminals stay mostly flat and decisive. Counters tend to be tight and often nearly closed (notably in letters like e and s), and several shapes lean toward constructed, single-storey logic in the lowercase, giving the design a distinctly engineered feel.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium blocks where impact and a strong graphic voice are desired. The wide, dense shapes work especially well for branding, packaging, posters, and large-format signage where its rounded geometry and tight apertures read as intentional design rather than crowding.
The overall tone is modern and assertive, but softened by rounded geometry that keeps it approachable. Its dense, high-impact silhouettes read as confident and energetic, with a slightly futuristic flavor that suits contemporary branding.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, high-impact sans that balances strict geometric construction with softened, rounded curves. Its letterforms prioritize a strong silhouette and consistent texture for display use, while maintaining enough structural clarity for prominent interface or marketing typography.
At text sizes the tight counters and closed apertures can create a dark, unified color, while at display sizes the distinctive cut-ins and geometric bowls become more characterful. Numerals and capitals share the same broad, sturdy stance, helping headings feel stable and intentional.
