A heavy, geometric sans with compact proportions and broad, rounded curves paired with crisp terminals. The strokes are consistently thick with little visible modulation, giving letters a solid, poster-like mass. Counters are relatively small and apertures tend toward closed shapes, while key forms like the single-storey “a” and “g” reinforce a simplified, contemporary construction. Overall spacing and rhythm feel dense and efficient, favoring impact over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong presence and quick recognition are priorities. It works well for packaging, signage, and short UI or marketing bursts where a dense, high-impact sans can carry the message without relying on fine detail.
The tone is bold and direct, projecting confidence and clarity with a friendly, approachable edge. Its rounded geometry keeps it from feeling harsh, while the dense color and compact shapes make it feel assertive and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with clean, geometric simplicity, creating a dependable display voice that stays legible while feeling contemporary and approachable.
Uppercase forms read as strong and stable, with wide curves in letters like C, G, and O and squared-off horizontal strokes in E and F. Numerals follow the same sturdy, simplified logic, designed to hold up at display sizes and in high-contrast settings.
