A heavy, geometric sans with rounded corners and simplified construction. Many counters are reduced or fully closed, turning traditional interior spaces into solid forms and creating a distinctive, cut-out/stencil-like rhythm. Strokes stay largely monolinear, with crisp joins and occasional wedge-like diagonals in forms such as A, V, W, and X. Proportions feel compact and display-oriented, with a relatively short lowercase x-height and prominent, weighty bowls that read as near-circular silhouettes in letters like O and Q.
Works best at larger sizes where its closed counters and cut-ins remain easy to parse—ideal for headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging. It can also serve as a distinctive accent face in editorial layouts, where short phrases benefit from its bold, graphic texture.
The overall tone is playful and attention-grabbing, with a mid-century/retro flavor driven by the rounded geometry and filled-in interiors. The dense black shapes create a punchy, poster-like presence that feels deliberately unconventional and decorative rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to maximize visual impact through simplified, near-solid letterforms and rounded geometric silhouettes. By minimizing interior openings and emphasizing outer shapes, it aims to create a memorable, decorative voice suited to display typography and brand-forward applications.
Because counters are frequently collapsed, legibility relies on outer silhouettes and distinctive notches/cuts, which becomes especially noticeable in text where repeated solid bowls create strong patterning. Numerals are equally heavy and rounded, matching the alphabet’s graphic density and making the set feel consistent for display applications.
