A heavy, geometric sans with broad proportions and generous internal space. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are mostly straight-cut, giving the forms a solid, engineered feel. Curves are smooth and circular in letters like C, O, and G, while joins and diagonals (K, V, W, X) stay crisp and stable. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, compact bowls, and straightforward, uncluttered construction; the numerals are similarly robust, with a round 0 and an open, horizontal-topped 2.
Best suited to display work where strong presence is needed: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and environmental or wayfinding applications. It also performs well for short UI labels or callouts when a bold, legible sans is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, optimized for clarity and impact rather than delicacy. Its wide set and rounded geometry read as approachable and straightforward, with a pragmatic, signage-like confidence.
The design appears aimed at delivering a high-impact, highly legible geometric sans with broad proportions and simple, familiar letterforms. It prioritizes clear silhouettes, open counters, and uniform stroke weight to stay readable and stable in bold settings.
Counters remain open at text sizes in the sample, and the wide stance helps prevent shapes from collapsing under heavy weight. The rhythm is even and steady across the alphabet, with few stylistic quirks, supporting consistent color in headlines and short text blocks.
