A heavy, geometric sans with crisp edges and a firm, even rhythm. Curves are built from clean circular/elliptical forms with open counters, while straight strokes stay vertical and uncompromising, producing a sturdy silhouette. Terminals are mostly flat and squared-off, and the joins are tidy and controlled, with minimal modulation beyond the evident contrast between thick stems and thinner connecting strokes. The overall proportions read slightly expanded with generous internal space, keeping letters clear even at large display sizes.
This font is well-suited to headlines and short, high-impact text where its weight and clean geometry can carry a layout. It can work effectively for branding, packaging, and signage that needs clarity and a strong, contemporary presence, and it also holds up in bold subheads and UI callouts where legibility at a glance is important.
The tone is modern and self-assured, with a straightforward, no-nonsense presence. Its geometry and strong weight give it a contemporary, punchy voice that can feel both corporate and energetic, depending on color and layout.
The design appears intended as a bold, geometric workhorse for display typography—prioritizing clean construction, strong silhouettes, and consistent rhythm for contemporary graphic design applications.
Uppercase forms look disciplined and symmetrical, with round letters staying close to true circles and diagonals feeling stable rather than calligraphic. Numerals follow the same geometric logic, and the punctuation in the sample text maintains the same solid, uncluttered character.
