A sturdy geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and round, near-circular bowls. Curves are smooth and consistent, while terminals are mostly straight-cut, producing crisp joins and a clean silhouette. The uppercase set feels compact and stable with wide, circular forms (C, G, O, Q) and simple, squared construction in E/F/T. Lowercase maintains a straightforward, highly legible structure with a double-storey “a”, single-storey “g”, and generous apertures; spacing and sidebearings read balanced for text and display alike. Numerals are bold and simple with clear differentiation and broad, rounded forms.
Well-suited to bold headlines, brand marks, and poster typography where strong shapes and clean curves carry at a distance. Its straightforward lowercase and open counters also make it a good fit for UI labels, wayfinding, and short-to-medium text blocks that benefit from a firm, modern voice.
The overall tone is modern and no-nonsense, projecting clarity and confidence without feeling cold. Its rounded geometry adds a mildly friendly, approachable character, making it feel contemporary and practical rather than expressive or decorative.
The design appears intended as a versatile, geometric workhorse: a bold, clean sans that stays neutral enough for broad use while retaining a contemporary, rounded character for impact.
Round letters dominate the texture, creating an even, rhythmic gray value in paragraphs. The design favors simplicity over quirk, with predictable shapes and consistent stroke behavior that keep wordforms clear at larger sizes.
