A heavy, broad sans with smooth, rounded construction and largely uniform stroke behavior. Curves tend toward circular/elliptical forms, with open, clean counters and a sturdy baseline presence. Terminals are mostly blunt and crisp, and joins stay simple and uncluttered, giving letters a stable, engineered feel. The proportions are expansive with generous width and spacing that keeps large text readable and compact shapes from clogging.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a wide, strong voice is needed. It also works well for packaging and signage that benefits from bold, rounded shapes and straightforward legibility at larger sizes.
The overall tone is modern and assertive, with a friendly accessibility created by rounded bowls and open interior shapes. It reads as practical and no-nonsense rather than delicate, projecting clarity and confidence in display settings.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, geometric sans presence with maximum impact and clarity, emphasizing wide proportions and rounded forms for approachable display typography.
The uppercase shows a strong, even rhythm with broad horizontals and steady verticals, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation through simple forms and generous counters. Numerals appear robust and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ wide stance and solid weight.
