A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform with minimal modulation, producing dense, stable letterforms and dark typographic color. Counters are generally compact and squarish, with round forms (O, C, G) reading as superelliptical rather than purely circular. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, and spacing feels tight-to-neutral, reinforcing a solid, poster-ready rhythm.
Best suited for headlines, large-scale copy, and display settings where a strong, compact texture is desirable—such as posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. Its simplified, rounded geometry also works well in UI labels and wayfinding when a sturdy, friendly presence is needed.
The overall tone is assertive and practical, with a contemporary, engineered feel. Rounded corners temper the weight, adding approachability while keeping a no-nonsense, workmanlike voice. It suggests reliability and clarity more than elegance or delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability through simple, geometric forms and rounded corners, balancing firmness with approachability. It prioritizes consistent rhythm and a strong silhouette for contemporary graphic applications.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “a” and “g,” a wide, rounded “O/0,” and numerals that match the same blocky, softened geometry. Diagonal strokes (V, W, X, Y) stay broad and stable, and the lowercase maintains a uniform, compact texture that holds together well in large sizes.
