A heavy, geometric sans with broad, rounded bowls and consistently thick strokes. Curves are smooth and circular, while terminals are mostly flat and decisively cut, creating a crisp edge on otherwise rounded forms. Uppercase proportions feel compact and stable, with wide counters in letters like O and D and simple, unornamented construction throughout. Lowercase forms follow a single-storey approach where applicable, with a clear, open aperture on letters like c and a sturdy, blocky presence in stems and shoulders.
This font suits short-to-medium display text where impact and quick recognition matter—headlines, posters, and bold brand statements. It also works well for signage and packaging applications that benefit from sturdy shapes and clear letterforms at a range of sizes.
The overall tone is modern and assertive, with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. Its weight and simple construction give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that still reads approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable, contemporary sans voice built on simple geometric forms, prioritizing strong presence, clean edges, and consistent texture for prominent messaging.
Numerals are large and strongly modeled, matching the letterforms’ circular logic (notably 0, 8, and 9) and maintaining an even, high-impact texture in running text. In paragraph settings the rhythm is dense and solid, favoring punchy emphasis and clear silhouettes over delicate detail.
