A heavy, rounded sans with thick, uniform strokes and softly shaped terminals. Curves are generous and circular, with compact counters that stay open enough at display sizes. The overall construction is sturdy and geometric-leaning, but with subtle softening at corners and joins that keeps the texture approachable. Uppercase forms are broad and blocky, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward rhythm with simple, single-storey shapes and minimal modulation.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where weight and width can do the work—posters, packaging fronts, brand marks, and bold UI moments like banners or hero titles. It can also function as a strong supporting display face for contemporary identities that need warmth without becoming decorative.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, balancing bold assertiveness with a friendly softness. Its wide, chunky silhouettes feel contemporary and slightly playful, suggesting an energetic, attention-grabbing voice rather than a formal one.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a friendly, rounded geometry—prioritizing legibility at large sizes, clear silhouettes, and a cohesive, modern voice for display-driven typography.
At larger sizes the tight counters and dense black shape create strong impact and a compact typographic color. The figures share the same thick, rounded logic as the letters, giving numerals a solid, poster-ready presence.
