A solid, geometric sans with broad, rounded curves and largely uniform stroke thickness. The shapes feel constructed from simple circular and straight elements, with smooth joins and minimal modulation. Counters are generous in letters like O and e, while several apertures (such as C, S, and a) are comparatively compact, giving the face a dense, sturdy texture. Terminals are mostly flat and clean, with occasional subtle softening at curves, and the overall rhythm reads even and strongly aligned for display and emphasis.
Works especially well in headlines, poster typography, brand marks, and packaging where a strong, friendly sans presence is needed. Its compact apertures and heavy color make it effective for short-to-medium text at larger sizes, as well as signage and UI moments that require quick recognition and emphasis.
The font conveys a modern, approachable confidence—friendly through its rounded geometry, but assertive due to its heavy presence and compact openings. It feels straightforward and no-nonsense, with a contemporary tone suited to clear, impactful communication rather than delicacy or formality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, geometric sans voice that balances approachability with authority. It prioritizes simple construction, consistent weight, and clear silhouettes to stay legible and impactful across prominent display applications.
Uppercase forms are wide and stable, with a near-circular O and a G that reads clearly through a strong horizontal bar. The lowercase uses single-storey a and g, reinforcing the geometric, contemporary voice. Numerals are robust and highly readable, with rounded forms on 0/6/8/9 and a simple, strong 1.
