A heavy, geometric sans with broad, even strokes and clean terminals. Curves are built from near-circular bowls with smooth joins, while straight strokes stay crisp and vertical, creating a steady, compact rhythm. Counters are generally open and generous for the weight, and the shapes lean toward simple, utilitarian construction (round O/Q, sturdy D/P/R bowls, and a clear, plain lowercase). Figures are robust and consistent, with a rounded 0 and simple, highly readable 1–9 forms suited to display sizing.
This font is well suited to headlines, posters, branding systems, and packaging where a bold, clean voice is needed. Its clear letterforms also make it a good choice for signage and labels, especially when viewed at a distance or on high-contrast backgrounds.
The overall tone is modern and confident, with a pragmatic, no-nonsense clarity. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than harsh, making it feel contemporary and friendly while still assertive.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary sans-serif voice with dependable legibility and a geometric, rounded character. It prioritizes simplicity and consistency across caps, lowercase, and numerals to perform reliably in prominent, attention-grabbing settings.
The sample text shows strong word-shape stability and clear separation between similar forms (notably i/j with distinct dots and a straightforward lowercase a). The weight and large internal spaces help maintain readability, though the dense color suggests it will feel most comfortable at headline and short-text sizes.
