This is a heavy, geometric sans with a predominantly monolinear feel and broad, rounded curves. The shapes are built from simple circular and rectangular logic, with clean terminals and minimal modulation. Counters tend to be compact in letters like B, P, R, and e, while apertures in forms like C, S, and a remain open enough to keep the rhythm clear. The lowercase is sturdy and blocky with single-storey a and g, short ascenders/descenders, and a firm baseline presence; figures are similarly robust, with round 0/8/9 forms and straightforward 1–7 constructions.
Best suited for headlines, large UI labels, posters, and bold brand marks where maximum presence is needed. It also works well for short blocks of copy such as packaging callouts or signage text, where its simple geometry and strong strokes maintain clarity at a distance.
The tone is direct and assertive, designed to read as contemporary and no-nonsense while still feeling approachable due to its rounded geometry. Its mass and simplified forms give it a strong, poster-like voice that suggests clarity, impact, and practicality rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact, contemporary communication with a geometric backbone—optimized for bold statements and quick recognition. Its simplified, sturdy letterforms aim for consistent texture and dependable readability in prominent applications.
In the text sample, the dense stroke weight and tight interior spaces make it most comfortable at display sizes, where the broad shapes and clean curves stay legible. The overall rhythm is even and consistent, with a distinctly geometric personality that remains cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
