A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and smooth, round counters. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a solid, even color in text. Curves (C, O, S) read as near-circular, while joins and terminals are clean and largely horizontal/vertical, with diagonals (A, V, W, X) cut crisply. Lowercase forms show a large, open construction and a single-storey “a,” with short ascenders/descenders relative to the body and simple, sturdy shapes that stay readable at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and large-format typography where its mass and wide stance can carry strong visual hierarchy. It also works well for branding and packaging that needs a modern, solid presence, and for signage where simple geometric shapes aid quick recognition.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, with a friendly, approachable softness coming from the rounded geometry. Its weight and breadth give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice suited to bold messaging rather than subtle typographic texture.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a straightforward geometric construction: large, round counters, consistent stroke weight, and compact detailing that stays cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The emphasis appears to be on bold, contemporary communication with a friendly edge rather than delicate text setting.
Text samples show tight interior spaces in letters like “e” and “s” at heavier sizes, creating a dense, punchy rhythm. Numerals match the letters in weight and geometry, with simple, blocky silhouettes intended for clarity and impact.
