A heavy, wide sans with geometric construction and rounded terminals. Curves are built from broad, near-circular bowls with generous interior counters, while straights feel clean and monolinear, giving a stable, uniform texture. Corners are subtly softened rather than sharp, and the overall silhouette reads blocky and confident with minimal detailing. Figures match the letters’ breadth and weight, with simple, sturdy shapes designed to hold up at large sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display settings where weight and width can be used for emphasis, such as posters, bold branding, packaging callouts, and large signage. It can also work for punchy UI labels or section headers when a strong, modern voice is needed.
The tone is bold and contemporary, combining a no-nonsense presence with approachable, rounded forms. Its wide stance and smooth curves suggest energy and confidence, lending a sporty, poster-ready feel without becoming harsh or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a clean geometric language, prioritizing bold readability and a contemporary, approachable personality for display typography.
The rhythm in text is dense and impactful, with strong horizontal emphasis and consistent stroke behavior that keeps words looking solid and cohesive. Round letters maintain a controlled, geometric feel, while diagonals and joins remain simplified to preserve clarity under heavy weight.
