A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and a strongly even stroke. Curves are built from large, smooth bowls with minimal modulation, while terminals are clean and largely straight, creating a crisp, poster-like silhouette. Counters are relatively tight in letters like B, P, and a, and round letters (O, Q, o) read as sturdy ellipses rather than perfect circles. The lowercase follows a single-story a and g, with a simple, open construction and short ascenders/descenders that keep lines dense and unified. Numerals are wide and robust, with the 2 and 3 showing prominent curves and flat-ish horizontal cuts that match the font’s squared-off rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and display typography where strong presence is an advantage. It works well for branding and packaging that benefit from a sturdy, geometric voice, and for signage or wayfinding where bold shapes need to read quickly at a distance.
The overall tone is bold and straightforward, with a friendly geometric warmth rather than a sharp technical feel. Its wide stance and compact internal spaces project confidence and immediacy, making it feel suited to energetic, attention-grabbing messages.
The design appears intended as a high-impact, geometric display sans that prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistent stroke presence. Its simplified forms and wide proportions suggest an emphasis on clarity and brand-forward personality rather than delicate text nuance.
In text settings, the strong color and tight counters create a solid typographic block, so spacing and line breaks will heavily influence legibility at smaller sizes. The design’s consistent geometry gives it a cohesive, branded look across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
