A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions, large counters, and smooth, rounded curves paired with flat terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing an even color and strong presence in text. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably the a and g), round dots, and compact joins that keep shapes tight and legible at display sizes. Numerals are robust and open, with straightforward construction and ample interior space for clarity.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where maximum impact and quick readability are priorities. It also fits packaging and editorial display settings that need a modern, sturdy voice, especially at medium-to-large sizes where its counters and rounded geometry read cleanly.
The overall tone is confident and contemporary, with a friendly, approachable feel driven by round bowls and simplified shapes. Its dense weight and wide stance communicate assertiveness and clarity, making it feel energetic without becoming playful or decorative.
Designed to deliver a high-impact, contemporary sans voice through simplified geometry, consistent stroke weight, and open counters. The intention appears to prioritize bold clarity and approachable modernity for display-driven typography.
The typeface maintains a stable rhythm across lines, with round forms (C, O, Q) and squared-off straights (E, F, T) balancing softness and structure. In the sample text, the weight produces strong emphasis and clear word shapes, while tight interior details suggest it’s best used where scale is generous.
