A heavy, geometric sans with even stroke weight and compact, efficient letterforms. Curves are built from near-circular bowls and smooth joins, while terminals are clean and mostly squared, giving the outlines a crisp, contemporary finish. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, and the overall proportions feel stable and slightly condensed in presence, with consistent rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for headlines and short-to-medium display copy where strong impact and clear forms are needed. It works well for branding, packaging, posters, and signage, especially in contexts that benefit from a modern geometric voice and bold presence.
The tone is direct and confident, with a modern, no-nonsense clarity. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable, but the dense black color and firm structure make it feel assertive and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum clarity and punch with minimal stylistic distraction—using geometric construction, consistent stroke weight, and compact counters to create a strong, contemporary sans for prominent typographic roles.
Uppercase forms read as simple, geometric constructions (notably the round letters like C/O/Q), while lowercase maintains a utilitarian, contemporary feel with clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals are robust and highly legible, matching the letters’ solid color and smooth curves.
