A very heavy, geometric sans with rounded outer curves and mostly flat, squared terminals. Counters are tight and the letterforms feel compact, with broad strokes and sturdy joins that keep shapes clear at large sizes. Curves are built from near-circular bowls (O, Q, 8) and simplified arcs, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are thick and assertive. The lowercase is straightforward and utilitarian, with single-storey a and g and short, dense bowls that emphasize weight over openness; punctuation-like dots (i/j) appear large and prominent in relation to the stems. Figures are equally bold and simplified, with rounded forms and minimal interior space in the 8 and 9.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where strong presence and quick recognition matter. It also works well for packaging and large-format signage, especially when a friendly geometric voice is desired.
The overall tone is loud, upbeat, and highly legible, projecting confidence and approachability. Its rounded geometry softens the mass of the strokes, giving it a friendly, contemporary feel while still reading as forceful and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended as a high-impact geometric sans that prioritizes solidity and clarity in large sizes. It aims to deliver a contemporary, approachable display voice with simple, robust shapes that reproduce strongly in print and on screen.
Spacing in the samples appears intentionally tight, creating a solid text color and a poster-like rhythm. Several joins and apertures are narrowed by the weight, which boosts impact but favors display settings over small text.
