A sturdy sans with broad proportions, generous counters, and a large x-height that gives lowercase forms strong presence. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal modulation and mostly rounded joins and terminals that soften the mass. Curves are built from clean, geometric arcs, while diagonals (V, W, Y, X) remain crisp and stable. Spacing reads open and uncluttered in text, supporting clear word shapes even at large sizes.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and brand systems where strong presence and quick readability are required. It also works well for signage and packaging where large x-height and open counters help maintain clarity at distance or in busy layouts.
The overall tone is confident and contemporary, with a friendly bluntness rather than sharp austerity. Its weight and breadth communicate emphasis and certainty, making it feel direct and energetic without becoming aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, modern sans voice with geometric cleanliness and high legibility, prioritizing impact and consistency across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Uppercase forms feel blocky and authoritative, while the lowercase stays highly legible thanks to simple constructions and ample internal space. Numerals appear robust and evenly colored, matching the letters for cohesive headline setting.
