A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and consistently thick strokes. Curves are built from large, round bowls with subtly softened transitions, while straight strokes stay firm and uniform, giving the face a dense, poster-like silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are compact, which increases color and presence, especially in the lowercase. The x-height reads tall with short extenders, and the overall spacing feels sturdy and deliberate, keeping words compact and visually stable at large sizes.
This font is best suited to headlines and short statements where maximum impact is needed—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. It also works well for attention-grabbing UI moments (hero banners, section headers) where a strong typographic voice is desirable, while longer reading will benefit from generous sizing due to its dense interior space.
The overall tone is confident and approachable, leaning more friendly than technical. Its chunky forms and rounded bowls give it a contemporary, slightly playful energy while still feeling straightforward and dependable.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that stays clean and geometric while adding warmth through rounded construction. Its proportions and tight counters suggest a focus on strong word shapes and immediate recognition in bold, modern layouts.
Round letters like O/o and C/c appear strongly circular, while diagonals (V/W/X) keep a crisp, structured rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey g and a compact, robust construction that reinforces the font’s bold, blocky texture in text.
