A hefty geometric sans with broad proportions and large counters, giving the text a solid, blocky presence without feeling cramped. Curves are smooth and round, while joins and terminals stay clean and straightforward, producing a crisp, modern rhythm in both caps and lowercase. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with a prominent dot on i/j and simple, single-storey forms, and the figures are bold and legible with rounded bowls and clear differentiation.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and logo wordmarks where a strong, contemporary presence is needed. It also works well for short-form UI labels, signage, and social graphics where legibility and punch matter more than subtle typographic nuance. For long passages of small text, its density and width may feel heavy, but it excels in titles and callouts.
This typeface reads as confident and direct, with an assertive voice that feels contemporary and no-nonsense. Its heavy, open shapes give it a friendly approachability while still projecting strength and clarity. Overall, it leans energetic and attention-grabbing rather than subtle or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact at a glance, prioritizing strong silhouettes and clear internal spaces for readability at larger sizes. Its geometry and uniform stroke behavior suggest a focus on consistency across letters and numbers for branding and display applications.
Capitals are broad and stable, with a round, open ‘O’ and a ‘Q’ featuring a clear diagonal tail. The overall spacing appears generous, helping counters stay open and preventing the heavy weight from clogging in the sample text.
