A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded contours. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense, solid letterforms and sturdy counters. Terminals are clean and largely blunt, while curved characters (C, G, O, Q, S) lean on circular geometry for an even rhythm. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms and short extenders, keeping the silhouette compact and highly uniform at display sizes; numerals follow the same robust, rounded construction.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, poster copy, brand wordmarks, packaging, and bold UI or app headers where impact is the priority. The sturdy shapes and open counters also make it useful for short statements in signage and social graphics, especially when set with ample leading.
The overall tone is bold and approachable: assertive enough for attention-grabbing headlines, yet softened by rounded geometry that reads friendly rather than severe. Its weight and width create a loud, energetic voice that feels contemporary and slightly playful.
The design intent appears to be a high-impact, contemporary sans that prioritizes immediacy and readability through simplified geometry, heavy color, and rounded forms. It aims to deliver a modern, approachable presence for prominent text rather than delicate, text-focused refinement.
Spacing appears generous relative to the heavy strokes, helping preserve clarity in tight, all-caps settings. Rounded counters and broad bowls keep internal white space open, while the heaviest joins (notably in M/W and dense lowercase like m/n) create a strong, blocky texture that’s most effective at larger sizes.
