A heavy, soft-cornered sans with a consistent stroke weight and a square, grid-like rhythm. Letters are constructed from simple geometric forms with rounded terminals and corners, producing compact counters and sturdy joins. Curves are broadly drawn (notably in C, G, O, and S), while straight-sided characters like E, F, H, and N keep a firm, blocky presence. Numerals follow the same rounded, monoline logic, with a clear slashed zero and simplified, robust forms suited to even spacing.
Works well for short-to-medium text where an even cadence and strong presence are desired, such as UI labels, wayfinding and signage, packaging, and bold informational graphics. Its rounded construction also suits playful branding, children’s or casual products, and attention-grabbing headings in print or on screen.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, combining a utilitarian, labeling feel with a playful, slightly retro warmth. The rounded endings and chunky proportions soften the weight, making the face feel approachable rather than severe.
The font appears designed to deliver a sturdy, highly legible texture with a softened, rounded personality. It prioritizes consistency and quick recognizability through simple geometry, uniform strokes, and a stable, grid-aligned rhythm.
The design maintains a steady, mechanical cadence across text, with minimal modulation and consistent visual width per character, helping lines set with an even, typewriter-like texture. Distinctive details include the slashed 0 and the single-storey a and g, reinforcing clarity and simplicity.
