A heavy, geometric sans with rounded bowls and broadly circular construction. Strokes are even and robust, with clean terminals and minimal modulation, giving the letters a steady, solid texture. Uppercase forms are wide and stable, while the lowercase shows compact, utilitarian shapes with single-storey “a” and “g,” tight apertures, and generous counters that keep interior space readable at size. Numerals are similarly sturdy and open, maintaining consistent weight and alignment with the text figures in the sample.
Best suited for headlines, branding, and display text where a strong, modern voice is needed. It can also work for short UI labels, wayfinding, and packaging copy where high impact and quick recognition are priorities, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is direct and contemporary, balancing friendliness from the rounded curves with a firm, assertive presence from the heavy stroke weight. It reads as practical and straightforward rather than decorative, suited to clear messaging and strong visual emphasis.
The design appears intended as a dependable, contemporary sans optimized for clarity and punch. Its geometric construction and sturdy proportions suggest a focus on versatile, high-impact communication across editorial and brand-led applications.
The rhythm is compact and dense in text settings due to the heavy strokes and relatively tight apertures, creating a strong “ink” presence on the page. Curves and joins are smooth and controlled, and the design maintains a consistent geometric logic across letters and figures.
