A heavy, rounded sans with broad, cushiony curves and minimal stroke modulation. Counters are relatively small and enclosed, giving the letters a compact, high-ink silhouette, while joins and terminals stay smooth and blunt rather than sharp. The lowercase shows a double-storey “g” and single-storey “a,” with sturdy stems and short, thick arms that keep the rhythm dense and even. Figures are similarly robust and open enough to read at display sizes, with a consistent, solid texture across lines.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where strong presence and quick recognition matter. It also works well for signage and short UI or app labels when a friendly, high-impact voice is desired, especially at larger sizes.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, combining strong visual impact with soft geometry. It feels contemporary and energetic, with a friendly, slightly playful character that still reads as confident and direct.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a soft-edged, geometric friendliness—favoring bold silhouettes, compact counters, and smooth terminals for a confident but welcoming display voice.
In paragraph-like settings the dark color and tight interior spaces create a bold typographic block, making it most effective when there is ample size and breathing room. The roundness is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, helping the set feel unified and cohesive.
