A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded curves paired with flat terminals. Strokes are uniform and dense, creating compact counters and a strong, even color in text. Curves are built from near-circular bowls (notably in O, C, and lowercase o), while diagonals and joins stay clean and straightforward, keeping the overall rhythm stable and uncluttered. The lowercase shows simple, modern constructions with single-story forms where visible (a and g) and short, sturdy extenders.
Best suited to headlines, large UI labels, posters, and branding systems that need a strong, high-impact voice. It also works well for packaging and signage where bold, geometric forms help text hold up at distance and against busy backgrounds.
The tone is assertive and upbeat, with a friendly softness coming from its rounded geometry. It feels contemporary and direct—more approachable than austere—while still projecting strength and clarity in large sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver a sturdy, contemporary sans for attention-grabbing typography, prioritizing strong silhouettes and consistent, geometric construction for clear, energetic display use.
At display sizes the thick strokes and tight apertures emphasize bold shapes and silhouette, while in longer lines the dense spacing and compact counters create a strong, headline-forward presence. Numerals match the same geometric, weighty treatment, reading as solid and utilitarian.
