A heavy, geometric sans with compact proportions and a high, sturdy x-height. Strokes are uniform and emphatically thick, with rounded bowls and controlled, straight-sided counters that keep forms tight and efficient. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, producing crisp joins and a no-nonsense silhouette, while key curves (C, G, S, O) stay smooth and continuous. Uppercase shapes feel broad-shouldered and blocky; lowercase remains simplified and highly legible, with a compact double-storey “g” and robust numerals that match the overall density.
Best suited for headlines and short blocks of text where strong presence and immediate legibility are needed—posters, branding, packaging, and bold UI or signage moments. Its compact geometry helps fit more characters into a line while keeping a solid, authoritative voice.
The tone is assertive and contemporary, designed to read loudly without feeling decorative. Its rounded geometry and compact rhythm add a friendly, approachable edge, while the weight and tight counters convey strength and reliability.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, geometric construction: simple forms, blunt terminals, and a compact rhythm that stays readable under heavy weight. It prioritizes strong texture, clear word shapes, and a contemporary, utilitarian feel for prominent typographic use.
At display sizes the letterforms look stable and even, creating dark, consistent text color. The punctuation and mixed-case sample suggest a headline-forward design that maintains clarity in dense settings, with minimal stroke modulation and a straightforward, industrial finish.
