A heavy, wide sans with rounded geometry and a clean, constructed feel. Strokes are thick and uniform, with softened corners and smoothly drawn curves that keep the shapes friendly despite the mass. Counters are relatively compact, and the overall rhythm is steady and dense, producing strong, dark typographic color in text. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, with a short-shouldered r and broad, open forms that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, signage, and branding where maximum impact and immediate legibility are priorities. It also works well for packaging and promotional graphics, especially when used with generous spacing and short to medium line lengths to avoid overly dense paragraphs.
The tone is assertive and energetic, leaning modern and slightly athletic. Its broad stance and smooth rounding give it a confident, approachable presence that feels suited to bold statements and brand-forward messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, modern voice with a wide footprint and smooth, geometric forms—optimized for attention-grabbing display typography while maintaining straightforward readability.
The numeral set follows the same wide, solid construction, with rounded bowls (notably in 6/8/9) and stable, horizontal terminals. In longer lines, the weight and width create a strong headline texture and a distinctly graphic silhouette.
