A heavy, wide sans with a distinctly geometric skeleton and rounded outer curves. Strokes are consistently thick with smooth joins, producing sturdy, high-ink letterforms and a stable horizontal rhythm. Counters are generous and mostly oval/round (notably in O, Q, o, p), while diagonals (V, W, X, y) are crisp and straight, giving the design a confident snap. Terminals are largely clean and blunt, and the overall spacing feels open enough to keep the bold shapes from clogging, especially in all-caps settings.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and large-format messaging where a wide, emphatic voice is needed. It also fits branding and packaging that benefit from a clean geometric presence, and it can work for signage or UI banners when strong emphasis and quick recognition are priorities.
The tone is modern and forceful, with a streamlined, engineered feel. Its broad stance and smooth geometry read as confident and energetic, leaning toward sporty and tech-forward rather than editorial or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, contemporary shape language—pairing broad proportions with rounded geometry to stay friendly while remaining assertive at display sizes.
Uppercase forms feel especially stable and logo-like, with wide proportions that emphasize horizontality. The lowercase maintains the same geometric logic, with simple, sturdy bowls and minimal modulation, helping the face stay consistent from display lines to short text blocks.
