A heavy, geometric sans with mostly uniform stroke weight and broad proportions. Curves are built from near-circular bowls that transition into flattened, squared terminals, giving many letters a rounded-rectangle feel. Counters are open and simple, with generous interior space in forms like O, D, and P, while joins stay crisp and minimally tapered. The lowercase leans toward single-storey construction (notably a and g), and the overall rhythm is blocky but smooth due to consistently softened corners.
Best suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, and display typography where strong presence and clear shapes are needed. It can also work for UI labels and wayfinding at moderate sizes thanks to its open counters and straightforward forms, though the dense weight suggests using it more for emphasis than long reading.
The tone reads contemporary and pragmatic, combining a sturdy, engineered presence with approachable rounded geometry. It suggests a clean, system-like voice that feels at home in digital interfaces while still being friendly enough for consumer-facing branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary geometric voice with softened corners for approachability, balancing technical precision with friendly readability in prominent applications.
Distinctive squaring of curves is especially noticeable in C, G, S, and the numerals, creating a hybrid of circular structure and rectangular finishing. The dotted i/j use round dots, and punctuation appears bold and simple, matching the letterforms’ sturdy texture.
