A heavy, geometric sans with broadly rounded bowls and blunt, squared terminals. Strokes stay uniform and dense, producing compact counters and a sturdy, blocky silhouette. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular arcs while joins and cuts (as in A, K, R, and numerals) are simplified into straight, no-nonsense angles. Spacing appears tight-to-moderate with strong black presence, and the lowercase shows compact proportions with a notably small x-height relative to the capitals.
Best suited to display settings where strong impact is needed—posters, big headlines, branding marks, packaging, and short callouts. It also works well for signage and social graphics where legibility at a distance benefits from thick strokes and straightforward shapes.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a slightly retro, poster-like confidence. Rounded forms soften the mass, keeping it friendly and energetic rather than severe. It reads as emphatic and attention-grabbing, suited to cheerful or punchy messaging.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual weight with simple, geometric construction and a friendly edge. The combination of rounded bowls and blunt terminals suggests an intention to feel modern and approachable while still projecting confidence and immediacy.
The design emphasizes simplified geometry and consistency over finesse: counters are small, apertures are relatively closed, and the numerals and punctuation-like shapes follow the same chunky logic. This makes the face feel solid in large sizes but potentially dense in long passages or at smaller sizes where interior space is at a premium.
