A heavy, rounded sans with compact proportions and a stable, blocky silhouette. Curves are broadly drawn and smooth, while terminals are mostly flat and blunt, giving counters a slightly tightened feel at text sizes. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms and short extenders, with a sturdy, utilitarian rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same dense color and firm geometry, reading as bold, even, and highly legible in display settings.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and identity work where high impact and clear shapes matter. It works well for posters, signage, packaging, and interface labels that need strong emphasis and quick recognition.
The tone is assertive and contemporary, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded curves. Its strong weight and compact spacing create an energetic, attention-grabbing voice that feels straightforward rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with simple, rounded construction and minimal stylistic distraction. It prioritizes bold clarity and a modern, approachable feel for display-led typography.
Round letters like O and Q are near-circular and robust, and the Q’s tail is short and practical. The overall texture is dark and consistent, making it effective for punchy headlines, but potentially overwhelming for long passages at smaller sizes without generous line spacing.
