A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and a compact, solid silhouette. Strokes are monolinear and consistently thick, with large counters and smoothly curved bowls that keep forms open despite the weight. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, while joins and curves stay soft, producing a sturdy, geometric rhythm. Uppercase forms are wide and stable; lowercase maintains clear, simple construction with single-storey shapes where expected, and numerals match the same bold, blocky color.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and short, emphatic messaging where a strong typographic voice is needed. Its wide, rounded forms also work well for signage and large-scale environmental text where quick recognition and high impact are priorities.
The overall tone is assertive and upbeat, combining friendliness from the rounded curves with a no-nonsense impact from the dense strokes. It reads as contemporary and accessible, leaning toward energetic branding rather than delicate or formal typography.
Designed to deliver maximum visual presence with approachable geometry: a bold, rounded sans meant to feel modern and friendly while maintaining clear, uncomplicated letterforms for strong display readability.
Large internal spaces and straightforward letter construction help preserve legibility at display sizes, while the strong weight creates a prominent typographic “stamp” effect. The ampersand and punctuation in the sample text sit comfortably within the same chunky, rounded logic.
