A heavy sans with broad proportions and sturdy, even strokes. Curves are smooth and close to geometric, producing round counters and a consistent rhythm across the set. Terminals are clean and largely horizontal/vertical, with minimal modulation, giving the letters a solid, poster-ready silhouette. The lowercase shows a double-storey “g,” a compact, functional “a,” and an overall straightforward construction that favors clarity over ornament.
Works best for headlines, short paragraphs, and display settings where high impact and quick legibility matter. It’s a strong choice for branding, packaging, wayfinding, and promotional graphics that benefit from a clean, modern sans with substantial presence.
The tone is confident and contemporary, with a friendly openness from the rounded forms and large counters. Its weight and width make it feel assertive and dependable, suited to messaging that needs to land quickly and clearly.
The design appears intended as a robust, general-purpose display sans: geometric-leaning forms, minimal stylistic quirks, and consistent stroke weight prioritize clarity, scale, and versatility for contemporary graphic use.
Spacing appears generous enough to keep dense text blocks from clogging, and the numerals match the letterforms with similarly wide, stable shapes. Diagonals (like in V/W/X/Y) are thick and emphatic, contributing to a strong, graphic texture in headlines.
