A monolinear, rounded sans with broad proportions and a clean, geometric construction. Curves are drawn from smooth ellipses with softened corners, while straight strokes stay even and crisp, producing a calm, low-tension rhythm. Uppercase forms are wide and stable, with open counters (notably in C, G, and S) and a horizontally stretched O. The lowercase maintains a tall x-height with simple, single-storey shapes (a, g) and minimal terminals; punctuation and numerals follow the same wide, streamlined logic.
Best suited to headlines, identity work, and short display copy where the wide stance can act as a visual signature. It can also work for UI or interface titles and large labeling where clean geometry and open counters support quick scanning, though its breadth may be less practical for dense, space-constrained text.
The overall tone feels modern and forward-looking, with a slightly sci‑fi/industrial flavor driven by the extended width and rounded geometry. Its smooth, even strokes read as neutral and engineered rather than expressive, giving it a sleek, contemporary voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, geometric sans voice with an emphasis on width and smooth, rounded construction. It prioritizes a clean, engineered look and a distinctive horizontal presence for display-led typography.
The very wide set width is a defining trait and will noticeably affect line length and layout. The design relies on open forms and generous internal space, which helps maintain clarity at display sizes while emphasizing a distinctive, stretched silhouette.
