A heavy, geometric sans with wide proportions and rounded, near-circular bowls. Strokes stay largely uniform with subtle optical tapering in joins and curves, producing a clean, assertive silhouette. Counters are generous for the weight, keeping forms open, while terminals are mostly straight-cut with smooth curvature where needed. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a round i/j dot, and compact, sturdy joins that maintain legibility at display sizes. Numerals are similarly robust and circular, with a notably rounded 0 and evenly weighted curves across 6–9.
Best suited to display applications where strong presence is needed, such as headlines, brand marks, packaging, posters, and bold UI or signage moments. Its open counters and straightforward construction help it remain clear in short blocks of text, though the dense weight is most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is bold and contemporary, with a friendly, approachable softness coming from its round geometry. It reads confident and energetic rather than formal, giving headlines a punchy, upbeat character. The weight and width create an attention-grabbing voice suitable for modern branding and editorial display.
Designed to deliver a modern, high-impact sans voice with rounded geometry and a stable, even rhythm. The letterforms prioritize immediacy and clarity, aiming for a friendly boldness that stands out without relying on decorative details.
Round characters (C, O, Q, o, e) emphasize circular construction, while diagonals (V, W, X, y) stay crisp and strong, balancing the softness of the bowls. The large, consistent stroke weight makes spacing and rhythm feel solid and graphic, especially in the sample text where the texture is dense yet readable.
