A heavy, geometric sans with sturdy, monoline construction and rounded-corner terminals. Letterforms lean on simple circles and straight-sided strokes, producing broad, open counters in rounds like O and Q and a consistent, even color across lines of text. Curves are smooth and controlled, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are straight and crisp, giving the design a stable, engineered feel. The lowercase is compact and pragmatic, with a single-storey a and g, a short-shouldered r, and simple, straight stems throughout; figures are equally solid and legible with clear interior shaping.
This font is well suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, and promotional graphics where a strong, clear voice is needed. It also works effectively for signage and short UI labels at larger sizes, delivering high legibility and consistent visual weight in compact copy blocks.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, balancing a friendly softness from the rounded corners with a no-nonsense, high-impact presence. It reads as straightforward and dependable rather than delicate, with a slightly sporty, headline-driven energy.
The design appears intended as a modern, geometric workhorse for display settings—prioritizing robust shapes, quick recognition, and a confident silhouette. Rounded terminals and simplified forms suggest an aim for approachability without sacrificing impact.
At display sizes the thick strokes and simplified joins hold up well, and the punctuation/dot forms appear bold and prominent, reinforcing the font’s strong texture. The rhythm is steady and uniform, favoring clarity and immediacy over nuance or calligraphic contrast.
