A heavy, rounded sans with monoline strokes and broadly geometric construction. Curves are smooth and circular, counters are open, and terminals are clean with minimal modulation. Proportions feel stable and slightly wide in round letters, while straights and diagonals remain compact, creating a lively, irregular rhythm typical of variable-width text faces. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g,” a compact “t” with a broad crossbar, and a simple, legible “e,” all contributing to a cohesive, contemporary texture.
Best suited to display sizes where its weight and rounded geometry can carry personality—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and social media graphics. It can also work for short bursts of UI or editorial emphasis where clarity and a friendly tone are needed, though the dense weight will be more dominant in long text.
The overall tone is warm and straightforward, combining a friendly roundness with a strong, confident weight. It reads as contemporary and accessible rather than technical, with just enough character in the curves and joins to feel upbeat and inviting.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, highly legible sans with rounded, geometric forms that feel approachable while remaining bold and stable. It prioritizes clear silhouettes and open counters for strong readability in attention-grabbing applications.
Numerals are bold and highly legible with generous interior space (notably in 8 and 9). Diagonals in letters like A, V, W, and X are firm and symmetrical, and the ampersand matches the same rounded, geometric logic as the rest of the set.
