A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and a strong, even stroke. Curves are built from near-circular bowls and smoothly blended joins, while terminals tend to be clean and horizontal/vertical, giving the forms a crisp, engineered finish. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, and the overall silhouette reads as solid and blocky, with simple, highly legible shapes that hold together well in dense settings.
Best suited to display uses where impact and clarity matter: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging callouts, and large-format signage. The dense, weighty forms also work well for short UI labels or badges when you need maximum presence in limited space.
The tone is bold and direct, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded geometry. It feels contemporary and energetic, designed to grab attention without becoming quirky or decorative.
This design appears intended as a robust, geometric workhorse for attention-driven typography—prioritizing bold presence, clean construction, and approachable rounded shapes that stay readable at a glance.
The lowercase shows a single-storey construction for key letters (notably the “a”), reinforcing the straightforward, geometric voice. Numerals are sturdy and clear, matching the same rounded-square rhythm seen in the letters.
