A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and emphatic verticals. Strokes show clear contrast within a sans structure, with thick stems paired with thinner connecting curves and occasional tapered joins. Counters are generally open and spacious for the weight, and curves are cleanly drawn with rounded bowls and crisp, slightly sheared terminals on several letters. The lowercase is compact and sturdy, with a single-storey “a” and “g” and a generally even rhythm that reads as engineered rather than calligraphic.
Best suited to display settings where weight and width can work for you: headlines, large subheads, posters, and bold brand marks. It also fits packaging and campaign graphics that need a modern, high-impact voice, especially when set with generous tracking and ample whitespace.
The overall tone is bold and self-assured, leaning modern and attention-grabbing. Its mix of geometric structure and sharp terminal cuts adds a slightly aggressive, sporty edge while staying clean enough for contemporary branding.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a clean sans framework, combining geometric clarity with noticeable internal contrast to add energy and character. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and confident rhythm for branding and display typography.
Round letters like C/O/Q show prominent internal shaping that reinforces the contrasted feel, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) read as strong, angular wedges. Numerals are large and poster-oriented, with simplified forms that prioritize impact over delicacy.
