A compact, geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded terminals. Curves are built from near-circular bowls and open arcs, while joins on diagonals and vertices (notably in K, V, W, X, Y) introduce crisp, angled cuts that add snap to the otherwise soft construction. Counters are generous and cleanly shaped for the weight, with a large, circular O and a single-storey a and g that reinforce the geometric logic. The overall rhythm is tight and efficient, with straightforward, blocky numerals and minimal modulation across the set.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and short display copy where its bold, compact forms can carry strong visual impact. It also works well for logos and packaging that benefit from geometric clarity and friendly rounded shapes, and for signage-style layouts needing quick recognition at large sizes.
The font reads as modern and approachable, pairing a clean geometric structure with softened corners for a friendly tone. Its compact stance and bold presence give it a confident, slightly retro display energy while remaining orderly and contemporary.
The design appears intended as a modern geometric display sans that balances firmness and friendliness. By combining circular construction with sharp diagonal cuts, it aims to stay clean and contemporary while adding enough character for brand-forward applications.
Round letters (C, G, O, Q) feel especially consistent and centered, giving the design a stable, engineered look. Distinctive angular notches and diagonal cuts provide differentiation and prevent the shapes from feeling overly bland at heavier sizes.
