A heavy, rounded sans with geometric construction and smooth, circular curves throughout. Strokes are consistently thick, terminals are clean and mostly flat, and many joins are softened, giving the shapes a sturdy, slightly cushioned feel. Counters are relatively tight in letters like B, e, and a, while bowls and rounds (O, C, G, o) stay broadly open and even. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (a, g) and compact, upright proportions that keep word shapes dense and emphatic.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where strong presence is needed. It also works well for packaging and retail/signage applications that benefit from friendly, high-impact letterforms. For longer text blocks, it’s most effective in short bursts such as callouts, labels, or UI headers where emphasis is desired.
The overall tone is confident and approachable, with a contemporary, no-nonsense clarity. Its rounded geometry and softened corners make it feel friendly rather than severe, while the heavy weight adds assertiveness and energy. The result reads as modern and attention-getting without becoming playful or quirky.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight with a smooth, geometric voice, balancing firmness with approachability. The forms prioritize immediate recognizability and a consistent, contemporary rhythm for display-driven typography.
The numeral set matches the letterforms with rounded geometry and strong, simplified silhouettes, supporting clear, bold readouts. In text, spacing appears tuned for impact: letters sit close enough to feel cohesive, yet remain legible due to clear interior shapes and consistent rhythm.
