A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and a tall lowercase that keeps counters open and legible. Strokes show clear thick–thin contrast, most evident where curves meet straights and in diagonals, giving the forms a slightly sculpted, ink-trap-adjacent feel without becoming decorative. Terminals are generally blunt and squared, with rounded bowls and smooth curves that create a steady, billboard-like rhythm. Overall spacing and letterfit read sturdy and assertive, favoring impact over delicacy.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and brand moments where immediate impact is needed. It can work well for logos, packaging, and short UI labels or navigational elements when set with enough breathing room, but it is less oriented toward long-form reading at small sizes.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a contemporary, athletic energy. Its rounded geometry softens the weight, keeping it approachable and friendly while still feeling authoritative and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with clean, contemporary geometry, combining strong mass with controlled contrast to keep shapes readable and distinctive in display typography.
The sample text shows strong word shapes at display sizes, with particularly prominent round forms (C/O/Q) and sturdy verticals that help maintain clarity in dense settings. Numerals match the headline weight and presence, supporting high-visibility messaging and signage-like applications.
