A sturdy sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded curves paired with straight, clean terminals. Counters are generous and largely circular/elliptical, giving letters like O, Q, p, and e a clear, open look. Strokes are consistently heavy with minimal modulation, and joins are crisp without feeling sharp, producing a solid rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals are similarly robust, with simple, legible forms and ample interior space.
Best suited to headlines, brand marks, packaging, and promotional layouts where a strong, broad sans can carry visual weight. The open counters and clean construction also make it a practical choice for signage and large-format wayfinding, as well as UI headers and callouts where clear, high-impact text is needed.
The overall tone is confident and contemporary, with a friendly clarity that stays professional rather than playful. Its rounded geometry reads approachable, while the weight and wide stance project assertiveness and stability. The voice feels straightforward and dependable—designed to be noticed without looking ornamental.
The design appears intended as a modern, geometry-driven workhorse for prominent typography—delivering bold presence through wide proportions and rounded construction while maintaining straightforward legibility. It prioritizes clarity, consistency, and a contemporary feel over stylized details.
The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, reinforcing a geometric, modern character. Curves stay smooth and well controlled, and apertures (notably in e and c) remain open, supporting readability at larger UI and display sizes. The uppercase has an even, orderly presence suitable for short, emphatic lines.
