A heavy, geometric sans with generous proportions and smooth, rounded curves. Strokes are uniform and robust, with large open counters and simplified joins that keep letterforms clean at display sizes. The lowercase shows a prominent x-height and compact ascenders/descenders, while terminals and corners read as slightly softened rather than sharp. Figures are broad and sturdy, matching the letters with consistent weight and strong presence.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, approachable sans is needed. It should perform well in signage and packaging thanks to its broad shapes, open counters, and simple construction that maintains clarity at a distance and at larger sizes.
The overall tone is direct and self-assured, with a friendly, contemporary feel. Its wide, solid forms project clarity and stability, giving text a bold, upbeat voice without feeling ornate or delicate.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with uncomplicated, geometric forms—prioritizing legibility, consistency, and a contemporary, friendly presence for attention-grabbing display typography.
The rhythm is even and blocky, with minimal modulation and a strong emphasis on straightforward geometry. Round letters stay close to circular, and straight-sided forms keep a steady, squared-off stance, producing a cohesive, no-nonsense texture in paragraphs and headlines.
