A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and large internal counters that keep shapes readable at display sizes. Strokes are monolinear with smoothly rounded joins and terminals, producing clean, compact silhouettes with minimal modulation. Curves are built from near-circular bowls, while diagonals and horizontals stay blunt and stable, giving the overall texture a dense, even rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same strong, simplified construction, emphasizing clarity and visual uniformity.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short-form messaging where strong emphasis and quick recognition are needed. It also fits branding and packaging work that benefits from a modern, rounded geometric voice, and can perform well in UI or signage for labels and calls-to-action when set with ample spacing.
The tone is assertive and upbeat, with a contemporary, no-nonsense presence. Its rounded geometry softens the weight, making it feel approachable rather than aggressive, while still reading as bold and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric sans that maximizes impact while retaining friendliness through rounded construction. It prioritizes bold legibility and a stable, uniform texture for prominent display settings.
Letterforms favor simple, high-contrast-in-shape construction: open apertures, generous counters, and a consistent, engineered feel. The heavy weight and wide set create strong word shapes and clear emphasis, especially in short bursts of text.
