A compact, geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded curve construction. Letterforms lean toward circular bowls and smooth joins, with sturdy verticals and minimal modulation. Counters are moderately open for the weight, and terminals read as cleanly cut rather than tapered, producing crisp edges and a stable texture. The overall rhythm is dense but consistent, with simple, unembellished shapes and a legible, contemporary skeleton across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, signage, and brand applications where high impact and quick recognition matter. It also works well for packaging and interface labels at larger sizes, delivering clear, simple letterforms and a consistent geometric texture.
The font projects a direct, confident voice with a contemporary, approachable tone. Its rounded geometry and solid weight feel friendly and practical rather than delicate or ornate, giving text a clear, assertive presence.
Designed to deliver a modern, no-nonsense sans presence built from simple geometric forms, prioritizing clarity and visual impact. The emphasis appears to be on dependable, versatile display typography that remains clean and readable while carrying strong weight on the page.
In running text, the tight proportions and strong weight create a dark, emphatic color that suits short bursts of copy. Numerals appear sturdy and highly visible, while round letters like O/C and bowl forms maintain a uniform, geometric character that supports consistent branding.
