A heavy, geometric sans with softened corners and superelliptical curves that keep counters open and shapes stable. Strokes are broadly even, with clear vertical stress and minimal modulation; terminals are crisp but not sharp, often ending in squared-off cuts. Proportions feel compact and efficient, with generous x-height, wide apertures, and rounded bowls that read as structured rather than bubbly. Numerals and capitals share a consistent, blocky rhythm suited to large, high-contrast settings.
Best suited for headlines, branding, posters, and signage where bold, compact letterforms need to hold their shape and remain legible at a distance. It can also work for UI labels and navigation elements that benefit from sturdy, rounded geometry, though the weight suggests using it sparingly for longer text.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, projecting confidence and clarity. Rounded geometry adds a mild warmth, preventing the weight from feeling harsh, while the compact construction keeps it disciplined and purposeful.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with controlled, geometric forms—pairing a strong, contemporary voice with slightly softened corners for approachability and clarity in display-driven typography.
Diagonal forms (like in A, V, W, X, Y) are firm and weighty, giving headlines a strong, anchored texture. Curved letters (C, G, O, S) lean into squared-round contours, producing a distinctive “rounded-rectangle” footprint across words.
