A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and a steady, even rhythm. Curves are built from near-circular bowls and rounded terminals, while joins stay crisp and uncluttered. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and apertures in letters like C, S, and e read clearly. The lowercase shows a single-story a and g with simple, compact shapes, and the overall texture in text is dense but controlled, with consistent stroke behavior across rounds and straights.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and short blocks of copy where high visual impact is desired. Its sturdy geometry also works well for branding, packaging, and signage, especially at medium to large sizes where the rounded forms and open counters stay distinct.
The tone is modern and assertive, with a friendly edge created by its rounded geometry. It feels straightforward and contemporary—more approachable than technical, but still strong and decisive.
Designed to deliver a bold, contemporary sans voice with geometric clarity and friendly rounding, balancing strong presence with legibility in common display and branding contexts.
The numeral set matches the font’s geometric construction, with substantial, rounded forms and stable alignment in a line of figures. In paragraphs, the weight produces solid color and a headline-first presence, making spacing and word shapes feel compact and punchy.
