A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and large interior counters that keep the forms open despite the dense weight. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular bowls with flattened joins and squared terminals, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are wide and strongly braced. Uppercase shapes read sturdy and architectural, with a low-contrast, single-stroke feel; lowercase maintains a large x-height and compact extenders, producing an even color and a steady baseline rhythm. Numerals are similarly robust and simplified, matching the squared/rounded hybrid geometry seen across the alphabet.
Best suited to display applications where impact and immediate legibility matter: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and wayfinding/signage. It can also work for short UI labels or callouts when a strong, contemporary voice is desired, though its heavy texture suggests using it sparingly for longer text.
The overall tone is bold and assertive without feeling aggressive, combining a contemporary, functional voice with a slightly sporty, headline-driven energy. Its rounded geometry adds approachability, while the substantial weight and width convey strength and certainty.
The design appears intended as a high-impact geometric sans that stays readable by preserving large counters and simple, consistent construction. It prioritizes a strong silhouette and uniform rhythm for branding and display typography.
Spacing appears generous enough to prevent clogging at display sizes, and the wide stance of many letters gives words a strong horizontal presence. The round letters (O/Q/C/G) and the squared shoulders of forms like n/m balance softness with a utilitarian, engineered look.
