A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and softly squared curves. Strokes are thick and even with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to end in blunt, slightly rounded cuts. Counters are relatively tight, giving letters a dense, punchy color on the page, while rounded forms like O, C, and G stay open and smooth. The lowercase follows a single‑storey a and g with simple construction and sturdy joins; the overall silhouette reads clean and geometric without sharp angles.
Best suited to display typography where impact is needed: headlines, posters, logos, and packaging. The dense stroke weight and rounded forms hold up well in short bursts of text and prominent UI or signage moments, especially at medium to large sizes where the tight counters won’t clog.
The tone is confident and approachable, with a nostalgic, poster-like presence. Its rounded mass and compact counters create a friendly, slightly playful feel that still reads as solid and dependable. The overall impression is loud and energetic rather than delicate or technical.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with a friendly geometric voice, combining rounded forms and blunt terminals for clear, high-impact display setting. The consistent stroke weight and broad shapes suggest an emphasis on strong word images and straightforward readability in branding and headline contexts.
The numerals share the same stout, rounded construction, keeping a consistent texture in display settings. In text samples, spacing and word shapes stay stable and legible at large sizes, with a strong black footprint suited to headlines.
