A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded curves paired with straight-sided stems. Counters are open and generously sized for the weight, while terminals are mostly squared with subtle softening, giving the shapes a sturdy, machined feel rather than a calligraphic one. The lowercase is compact and solid, with simple joins and minimal modulation, and the overall spacing reads even and stable in text. Numerals match the bold color and wide stance, staying highly legible at large sizes.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and bold brand statements where impact and clarity are priorities. It can also work for packaging and wayfinding/signage at larger sizes, where its open counters and broad forms remain readable.
The tone is direct and energetic, with a friendly warmth coming from the rounded geometry and open forms. It feels contemporary and assertive, suited to messaging that wants to look strong, clear, and approachable rather than delicate or formal.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence with clean, uncomplicated letterforms. Its geometry and steady rhythm suggest an intention toward contemporary versatility—strong enough for attention-grabbing titles while remaining friendly and straightforward.
The design’s uniform stroke behavior and broad silhouettes create a dense typographic color that holds together well in short bursts. Round letters like O/C/G and the double-arch M/W contribute a geometric rhythm that stays consistent across the alphabet.
