A heavy, rounded sans with a compact silhouette and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal modulation and large, rounded counters that keep forms open despite the weight. Curves tend toward squared-off bowls and superellipse-like geometry, giving letters a blocky rhythm while maintaining a smooth, friendly finish. Terminals are consistently rounded, and the overall texture is dense and stable in text.
Best suited for headlines, branding marks, packaging, and short, bold statements where a friendly but assertive tone is needed. It also performs well for signage and UI callouts at larger sizes thanks to its open counters and clear, simplified shapes.
The tone is warm and approachable, with a bold, confident presence that reads as contemporary and slightly playful. Its rounded geometry makes it feel less severe than a typical heavy grotesk, lending a welcoming, upbeat character suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver strong impact without harshness, using rounded-rectangle construction and consistent heavy strokes to create a modern display sans that remains approachable and readable.
Lowercase forms lean toward single-storey constructions (notably in the "a") and simple, geometric joins, reinforcing a clean, sign-like clarity. Numerals and punctuation match the same rounded, sturdy logic, producing a cohesive, highly legible voice at larger sizes.
