A heavy, contrasted sans with geometric construction and a distinctly modular feel. Many forms lean on near-circular bowls (notably O/o and 8/9) paired with straight, flat terminals and occasional wedge-like joins, creating crisp interior counters and strong black–white patterning. Several characters show closed or narrowed apertures (such as C/c and e), and the lowercase includes mostly single-storey forms with compact, rounded counters. Overall spacing appears steady and the silhouettes read as clean blocks, with small, sharp details (like the Q tail and angled diagonals) adding tension to otherwise simple geometry.
Best suited to headlines, branding marks, and short editorial settings where its bold geometry and contrasted strokes can be appreciated. It performs especially well at medium to large sizes for posters, packaging, and attention-grabbing UI or campaign graphics, where the dense silhouettes and distinctive counters create memorable word shapes.
The tone is contemporary and assertive, with a slightly quirky, display-forward personality. Its rounded cores and tight apertures give it a punchy, poster-like presence, while the clean terminals keep it aligned with modern graphic design. The result feels confident and energetic rather than neutral or purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended as a contemporary display sans that balances geometric clarity with idiosyncratic details to create a recognizable voice. Its forms prioritize impact and graphic cohesion over maximum openness, aiming for strong presence in titles and brand-forward typography.
The font’s rhythm is driven by circular counters and consistent vertical stems, producing a strong, logo-friendly texture in words. Diagonals in letters like V/W/X/Y and the angled elements in K/R introduce a sharper, more dynamic contrast against the dominant round forms.
