A heavy, geometric sans with broad, compact proportions and rounded, superellipse-like curves. Strokes are uniform with minimal modulation, producing a dense, solid color in text. Terminals are mostly blunt, with softly rounded joins that keep counters open and legible at large sizes. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and simple, workmanlike construction, while numerals are sturdy and wide with smooth, continuous curves.
Best suited for headlines, display typography, and short blocks of copy where density and impact are desirable. It works well for branding, packaging, and signage that needs a modern, approachable bold voice, and can also serve as a strong typographic accent in UI or editorial layouts.
The overall tone is bold and direct, with a contemporary, no-nonsense presence. Rounded geometry adds a friendly edge to the weight, making it feel approachable rather than severe. It reads as energetic and confident, suited to messaging that needs immediate attention.
Designed to deliver maximum visual punch through heavy, uniform strokes and geometric, rounded construction. The tall lowercase and open counters suggest an aim for clarity at display sizes while retaining a friendly, contemporary character.
Round letters maintain a squared-off, superelliptical feel rather than pure circles, giving the face a distinctive, slightly industrial rhythm. In running text the weight creates strong emphasis, with spacing that supports chunky, impactful word shapes.
