A geometric sans with an extended, horizontally stretched stance and consistent monoline strokes. Curves are built from broad, rounded bowls and near-elliptical counters, while joins and terminals stay crisp and clean without decorative flare. The overall rhythm feels open and spacious, with generous interior whitespace and smooth, continuous curvature across round letters and numerals. Diacritics are not shown; punctuation appears minimal in the sample, but spacing and word shapes remain even and controlled.
Best suited for display-driven applications where width and geometry can be a feature: brand wordmarks, tech or product headlines, posters, and environmental signage. It can also work for UI titles and navigation labels when ample horizontal space is available, keeping a clean, consistent texture.
The font conveys a modern, forward-looking tone—cool, streamlined, and slightly sci‑fi. Its wide proportions and rounded geometry create a calm, engineered feel that reads as contemporary and technology-adjacent rather than playful or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary geometric voice with a distinctly expanded footprint—prioritizing smooth circular construction, open counters, and a polished, engineered presence for modern display typography.
Uppercase forms emphasize broad arcs and long horizontals, giving headings a panoramic presence. Numerals follow the same elliptical logic, with notably wide, open shapes that maintain clarity at display sizes. In paragraph-style sample text, the wide set produces distinctive word silhouettes and a measured, unhurried texture.
