A heavy, geometric sans with smooth circular curves and firmly cut, straight terminals. Letterforms are built from simple, consistent shapes with minimal modulation, giving the design a solid, even color in text. Counters are relatively closed in letters like a, e, and s, while rounds (o, c, G) stay clean and symmetrical. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a short-armed r, and a compact t, contributing to a straightforward, contemporary rhythm. Numerals are robust and simple, with a rounded 0 and a plain, vertical 1, matching the overall utilitarian geometry.
Best suited to headlines, display copy, and short-to-medium text where a strong, compact presence is desired—such as posters, packaging, wayfinding, and brand marks. It also works well for UI labels and buttons when a clear, assertive tone is needed.
The tone is direct and contemporary, projecting confidence and clarity without feeling cold. Its rounded geometry and soft curves add approachability, making it feel friendly and modern rather than technical or austere.
Likely designed to provide a versatile, modern sans voice with high impact and consistent geometry—prioritizing clarity, simplicity, and a dependable contemporary feel across letters and numerals.
At larger sizes the shapes read as crisp and poster-ready, while in paragraph settings the dense stroke weight and tighter counters create a strong, attention-forward texture. Proportions lean slightly compact, helping words feel sturdy and well-contained.
