A heavy, geometric sans with monoline strokes and broadly rounded bowls. Curves are clean and circular (notably in O, C, and 0), while straight-sided forms keep edges crisp; corners read mostly squared with subtle softening rather than sharp joins. Counters are compact and apertures are relatively tight, creating a dense, high-ink texture. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy with a two-storey “a,” single-storey “g,” and short-armed “r,” and the figures are large, uniform, and blocky for strong presence.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where impact and quick recognition matter. It also fits UI labels, wayfinding, and packaging callouts that benefit from sturdy shapes and straightforward letterforms.
The overall tone is contemporary and assertive, optimized for clear, no-nonsense communication. Its round construction keeps it approachable, while the dense weight and compact counters add a confident, poster-like punch.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern geometric voice with strong presence and straightforward readability, prioritizing bold shapes, clean curves, and consistent construction for attention-grabbing display use.
The design emphasizes even rhythm and consistent stroke endings, producing a stable, sign-like silhouette at larger sizes. Spacing appears generous enough for headline settings, helping prevent the heavy strokes from clumping in continuous text.
