A heavy, geometric sans with smooth, rounded curves and largely monolinear stroke behavior. Counters are open and generously sized for the weight, with crisp terminals and minimal modulation. Proportions read as fairly compact and stable, with rounded bowls (C, O, G) paired with straight-sided verticals (H, N, I) for a consistent, contemporary rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g and a short, no-frills t, reinforcing a simplified, functional construction. Numerals are robust and clear, with wide, circular forms in 0/8/9 and straightforward angles in 4/7.
Well suited to headlines, branding marks, and short statements where a strong, clean presence is needed. It should also work effectively for signage and packaging that benefits from clear, simplified letterforms and high visual impact.
The overall tone is modern and confident, with a friendly accessibility coming from the rounded geometry and open counters. It feels practical and straightforward rather than expressive, projecting clarity and reliability in display-forward settings.
The design appears intended as a contemporary, geometric workhorse for prominent typography—prioritizing sturdy shapes, clean construction, and immediate readability in bold, attention-getting applications.
At larger sizes the weight produces strong color and a solid silhouette, with spacing that feels even and intentionally tight for impact. The design stays consistent across curves and joins, favoring clean geometry over calligraphic detail.
