A compact, heavy sans with smooth, largely geometric construction and monoline strokes. Curves are full and clean, with round counters and a steady, even rhythm across the alphabet. Terminals are straight and unembellished, and joins stay crisp, giving the forms a solid, contemporary presence. Uppercase proportions feel sturdy and squared-off in silhouette, while lowercase letters keep simple, familiar shapes with open apertures for clarity. Numerals are similarly robust and evenly drawn, matching the letterforms’ weight and roundness.
This font suits short-to-medium headline settings where a strong, contemporary sans is needed, such as branding, posters, and display copy. Its clear shapes and open counters also make it a good choice for UI labels, navigation, and signage where fast recognition matters.
The overall tone is modern and direct, with a confident, no-nonsense voice. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than severe, making it feel friendly while still assertive and professional.
The design appears intended as a sturdy, modern workhorse sans with a geometric backbone—built to deliver strong emphasis without decorative complexity. It prioritizes clean shapes, consistent stroke behavior, and reliable readability in prominent, everyday applications.
The typeface maintains consistent color in text, with strong verticals and stable spacing that read clearly in paragraphs. Round letters (like O/C/G and 0/8/9) share a cohesive curvature, helping headlines and UI labels look unified.
