A compact, heavy sans with mostly uniform stroke weight and tight, efficient proportions. Curves are round and full (notably in C, O, G, and 0), while joins and terminals read as clean and straightforward, giving many letters a slightly blocky, engineered feel. Counters are relatively small for the weight but stay open enough for legibility, and the overall rhythm is steady with a pragmatic spacing and a consistent, no-frills construction.
Well-suited for bold headlines, short statements, and compact layouts where strong presence is needed. It works effectively on posters, packaging, and signage, and can serve as a forceful brand voice when used in moderate amounts. For longer text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes due to its dense stroke and compact interior spaces.
The tone is strong and matter-of-fact, with a contemporary, workmanlike voice. Its dense color and compact shapes convey confidence and a slightly industrial bluntness, more functional than friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, combining simple geometric curves with sturdy, uniform strokes for clear, decisive display typography.
Uppercase forms feel sturdy and uniform, while lowercase maintains simple, single-storey constructions where expected (e.g., a and g) for clarity at display sizes. Numerals match the letter weight closely and present as solid, attention-holding figures suited to prominent settings.
