A heavy, geometric sans with monoline strokes and broad, rounded counters. Curves are built from near-circular and elliptical forms, while corners are generally softened rather than sharply cut, producing a sturdy, engineered feel. Proportions favor wide set capitals and generous horizontal spans, with simplified joins and minimal modulation. Numerals and lowercase share the same chunky, even rhythm, keeping letterforms uniform and highly stable at large sizes.
Best suited to display settings where mass and width can work as a visual anchor—headlines, posters, identity systems, packaging, and environmental or wayfinding applications. It can also serve as a strong supporting sans in UI or dashboards when used sparingly for emphasis, labels, or key metrics.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, with a utilitarian, machine-made clarity. Its wide stance and rounded geometry convey a confident, tech-forward character without feeling playful or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, geometric construction and broad proportions, prioritizing bold silhouette recognition and a consistent, industrial rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase text.
The spacing appears open and the shapes remain distinct in tight lines of text, emphasizing solid silhouettes and strong word images. Round letters and bowls dominate the texture, while diagonals in letters like V/W/X and the angled terminals add a subtle dynamic counterpoint to the otherwise calm geometry.
