A heavy, extended sans with broad proportions and smooth, geometric construction. Strokes are consistently thick with rounded corners and gently squared curves, giving the letters a streamlined, engineered feel. Counters are open and generously sized for the weight, and the spacing reads even at display sizes. Several joins and terminals suggest subtle ink-trap-like cut-ins or flattened transitions that help keep shapes crisp and prevent dark buildup in tight areas.
Best suited to large-scale settings where width and weight can work as a feature: headlines, posters, packaging fronts, and brand marks. It can also perform well in short UI labels or wayfinding where strong, wide letterforms improve quick recognition, but it is most compelling when given room to breathe.
The overall tone is confident and high-impact, with a contemporary, technical flavor. Its wide stance and controlled curves evoke sports branding, automotive/industrial aesthetics, and bold editorial headings rather than quiet, neutral text.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with a modern geometric voice, balancing rounded forms with engineered details to stay legible and controlled at heavy weights. The wide proportions and refined joins appear intended to create a distinctive, contemporary display sans for branding and impactful messaging.
The uppercase set feels especially expansive and stable, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, compact rhythm. Numerals match the same wide, rounded geometry and read clearly, with an emphasis on smooth horizontal flow and strong silhouette recognition.
