A geometric sans with strongly expanded proportions and monoline strokes. Curves are smooth and circular, with large open counters and a consistent, even rhythm across the alphabet. Terminals are clean and largely straight-cut, while joins stay crisp, giving the design a modern, engineered feel. The lowercase is compact and highly legible, with simple single-storey forms and rounded bowls that echo the uppercase geometry; numerals follow the same wide, streamlined construction.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and large-format applications where its wide geometry can be a defining visual feature. It works well for posters, packaging, and signage that need a clean, modern voice with high visibility.
The overall tone is modern and forward-looking, with a confident, display-oriented presence. Its wide stance and round geometry read as tech-adjacent and contemporary, while the open shapes keep it approachable rather than austere.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric look with maximum presence at display sizes, emphasizing smooth circular construction, clarity, and a broad, stable footprint.
Spacing and internal apertures appear generous, helping large sizes feel airy despite the heavy stroke mass. Diacritics and punctuation are not shown; the sample demonstrates strong impact in headlines and short blocks of copy.
