A heavy, geometric sans with round bowls, straight-sided verticals, and smooth circular curves. Letterforms are built from simple, even strokes with open apertures and generously sized counters, keeping silhouettes clear at a range of sizes. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, with minimal modulation and a steady rhythm across caps and lowercase. Figures are robust and highly legible, matching the overall blocky-but-rounded texture of the alphabet.
Well suited to headlines, brand marks, posters, and display typography where a strong, modern sans is needed. It can also work for signage and packaging that benefit from high clarity and bold presence, especially in short to medium-length text.
The font reads modern and straightforward, projecting confidence without feeling aggressive. Its rounded construction and ample counters add a friendly, accessible tone, while the dense weight gives it a strong, attention-holding presence.
Likely designed to provide a dependable, geometric display sans that stays readable while delivering strong impact. The emphasis on simple construction, open counters, and consistent stroke behavior suggests a focus on clarity and versatility in contemporary graphic applications.
The overall color is dark and consistent, producing a solid typographic mass that suits short lines and prominent settings. Curved characters (like C, O, S) maintain smooth geometry, while diagonals (such as V, W, X, Y) feel crisp and decisive, supporting a clean, contemporary voice.
