A heavy, geometric sans with broad, even strokes and consistently rounded curves. Forms are built from simple circles and straight stems, with crisp terminals and minimal modulation. Counters are relatively compact in the lowercase, and spacing reads steady and controlled, giving lines a dense, solid texture. Numerals share the same robust construction, with clear, simple shapes and strong horizontal/vertical emphasis.
Best suited to display roles where impact and clarity are priorities—headlines, poster copy, brand marks, packaging, and wayfinding/signage. The dense color and compact counters make it especially effective at larger sizes and in short-to-medium text runs where a strong, modern voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. It feels pragmatic and no-nonsense, projecting clarity and strength without looking sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended as a dependable, high-impact geometric sans for contemporary communication—prioritizing bold legibility, clean construction, and a friendly, rounded modernism that holds up well in prominent, attention-grabbing settings.
Diagonal-heavy letters like A, V, W, X, and Y appear particularly strong due to the thick diagonals, while rounded letters (O, Q, S) maintain smooth, near-circular bowls. The lowercase has a straightforward, functional feel, favoring simplicity over calligraphic detail, which helps keep large blocks of text visually uniform.
