A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions, even stroke weight, and rounded curves that keep counters open. Terminals are mostly flat and clean, with smooth joins and minimal modulation, giving the shapes a solid, stable feel. Uppercase forms are wide and calm in rhythm; lowercase is similarly robust with simple construction and clear differentiation between stems, bowls, and apertures. Numerals match the letterforms with substantial weight and straightforward geometry for consistent color in text.
Well suited to headlines and short blocks of text where impact and legibility are both required, such as posters, marketing graphics, and brand wordmarks. The wide proportions and open counters also make it a strong choice for signage and packaging where quick recognition matters.
The font reads modern and confident, prioritizing clarity over personality-driven quirks. Its wide, sturdy shapes project an approachable but assertive tone, suitable for messaging that needs to feel direct and dependable.
The design appears intended as a versatile, geometric workhorse with a strong voice—delivering high readability and visual authority through wide, simple forms and consistent stroke weight.
In the sample text, the bold weight creates strong typographic color and presence, while the generous counters help prevent clogging at larger display sizes. The overall spacing and broad letterforms emphasize horizontality, contributing to a calm, stable texture.
