A heavy, geometric sans with broad circular bowls and a compact, even rhythm. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are cleanly cut, giving the shapes a crisp, engineered finish. Counters are generous in round letters (O, C, G) and remain open in forms like S and a, supporting clarity at display sizes. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g with simple, rounded construction, while numerals are sturdy and wide with clear silhouettes.
Best suited for headlines, logotypes, and short-to-medium blocks where strong presence and clear letterforms are needed. It should perform well in posters, signage, and packaging, and can also work for UI or editorial callouts where a sturdy, modern sans is desired.
The overall tone is contemporary and straightforward, with a friendly roundness that keeps the weight from feeling harsh. It reads as confident and attention-getting, suited to bold messaging without becoming ornamental or playful in a novelty way.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-impact sans voice built from simple geometric forms, prioritizing clarity and consistency while maintaining an approachable, rounded character.
The design leans on circular geometry, with smooth joins and stable verticals that create a strong, blocky texture in paragraphs. Capitals feel particularly solid and symmetrical, while the lowercase maintains a pragmatic, highly legible simplicity.
