A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Curves are generously circular and terminals are cleanly cut, giving counters an open, even rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g,” with compact joins and a slightly squared-off, engineered feel in letters like “t” and “r.” Figures are simple and sturdy, with uniform stroke presence that keeps color dense and consistent across lines.
Well-suited for headlines, short-form marketing copy, and branding where a bold, approachable voice is needed. The dense, even typographic color also supports signage and UI labels where clarity and presence are priorities.
The overall tone is modern and straightforward, projecting confidence without feeling harsh. Its rounded geometry adds approachability, making it feel friendly and contemporary while still reading as practical and no-nonsense.
Designed to deliver a strong, modern sans voice with rounded geometry and dependable legibility. The forms emphasize simplicity and consistency, aiming for a contemporary workhorse that can anchor bold editorial or brand-driven typography.
Spacing appears steady and built for strong, even texture in paragraphs. Round letters like O/C/G and bowls in B/P/R maintain consistent curvature, helping the face feel cohesive at both display and text sizes.
