A heavy, geometric sans with broad, rounded curves and flat terminals. Strokes stay consistent throughout, producing a dense, solid color on the page, while counters remain relatively open for clarity at large sizes. Proportions feel compact and efficient with a tall lowercase that keeps the text line visually full; round letters are built from near-circular bowls and the joins are smooth and sturdy. Numerals match the letterforms with similarly weighty shapes and simple construction.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branded statements where strong impact and quick recognition are needed. It also works well for signage and packaging that benefits from sturdy shapes and a clean, geometric voice.
The overall tone is bold and direct, with a contemporary, approachable feel. Its rounded geometry reads friendly rather than severe, while the weight gives it an assertive, headline-ready presence.
Likely designed as an impact-oriented, geometric sans for contemporary display typography—prioritizing solid presence, smooth curves, and simple forms that reproduce reliably across print and screen contexts.
The design relies on simple, high-impact silhouettes: circular bowls, straightforward diagonals, and minimal modulation. In text, the strong weight and tight interior spaces create high visual density, making it especially effective when given generous tracking or used at larger sizes.
