A sturdy geometric sans with generous, rounded bowls and mostly uniform stroke thickness. Curves are clean and circular-leaning, while terminals are predominantly straight-cut, producing a crisp, contemporary silhouette. Uppercase forms are broad and stable with ample counters; the lowercase keeps a compact, practical construction with a single-storey a and g and simple, utilitarian joins. Numerals are heavy and clear, with rounded figures and straightforward shapes that read well at display sizes.
This font suits headlines, branding marks, packaging, and signage where bold, clear forms need to hold up at a distance. It also works well for short subheads and UI callouts that benefit from a strong, even typographic color.
The overall tone is modern and dependable, with a friendly openness from its round forms and large counters. Its weight and simple geometry give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that still feels approachable rather than formal.
The design appears intended as a versatile geometric sans that prioritizes clarity, impact, and contemporary neutrality. Its rounded construction and straightforward terminals aim to deliver strong legibility with an approachable, modern character.
Round letters like O/C/G maintain consistent curvature, while diagonals in A/V/W/X are firm and clean, reinforcing a structured rhythm. The sample text shows strong word-shape consistency and solid color, making it effective for short lines and larger typography where impact is desired.
