A sturdy sans with broad proportions and a largely geometric construction. Strokes are uniform and heavy, with smooth curves and crisp, squared terminals that keep the outlines clean. Counters are open and spacious, and many forms lean toward circular or elliptical bowls (notably in C, O, Q, and the lowercase o), producing an even, modern rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, compact shoulders, and straightforward joins, while numerals are simple and highly readable with wide, stable shapes.
Well-suited for headlines and short passages where a strong, readable voice is needed, such as branding, posters, and promotional typography. The open counters and straightforward shapes also make it a good fit for signage and interface labels where clarity at a glance matters.
The overall tone is confident and contemporary, with a friendly clarity that comes from rounded geometry and generous internal space. Its weight and breadth give it an assertive presence without feeling decorative, making it feel dependable and direct.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a modern, high-impact sans voice built on simple geometric shapes and consistent stroke weight. The emphasis on open counters, broad proportions, and restrained detailing suggests an intention to maximize legibility while maintaining a bold, contemporary presence.
The design favors clarity through large apertures and uncomplicated silhouettes; diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are strong and clean, and the punctuation/dot forms read as solid and emphatic at text sizes. The wide stance and consistent stroke behavior help maintain a steady texture across mixed-case settings and numerals.
