A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions, circular bowls, and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing sturdy shapes and strong color on the page. Counters are generally generous, while apertures tend toward the compact side, giving letters a solid, sealed-in feel in words. Terminals are clean and blunt, spacing reads even and stable, and the overall rhythm is built from simple circles, straight stems, and squared joins that stay visually consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for display typography where impact and legibility at large sizes are priorities—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and wayfinding or signage. It can also work for short blocks of text such as UI banners or promotional copy, where a dense, high-ink presence is desirable.
The tone is bold and friendly, combining a contemporary geometric voice with an unmistakably assertive presence. It feels energetic and straightforward rather than delicate, projecting confidence and clarity while still reading approachable due to its rounded forms.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight with simple, geometric construction, aiming for a contemporary, high-impact sans that stays clean and readable. The consistent forms and compact apertures suggest an emphasis on bold word shapes and strong typographic presence in branding and advertising contexts.
The caps have a strong headline stance with wide, simplified silhouettes, and the lowercase maintains a clear, sturdy structure with a compact, no-nonsense texture in running text. Numerals match the same rounded geometry and weight, supporting cohesive typographic systems where figures need to stand up to display sizes.
