A heavy, rounded sans with superellipse-like curves and softened corners that give the forms a squarish-but-smooth silhouette. Strokes are thick and even, with broad shoulders and generous interior counters that stay open despite the weight. Terminals are blunt and clean, curves are controlled rather than geometric circles, and joins feel sturdy and compact. Overall spacing and proportions read stable and contemporary, with a consistent rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short text where impact and clarity are the priority—posters, retail and wayfinding signage, packaging, and bold brand marks. The rounded geometry and open counters help it remain legible at display sizes, especially in high-contrast layouts.
The font conveys a confident, upbeat tone—strong and attention-grabbing, yet approachable due to its rounded edges. It feels contemporary and utilitarian, with a slightly playful, sporty energy that suits bold messaging without turning ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a friendly, modern softness. Its superellipse-driven construction suggests a focus on clean, contemporary shapes that reproduce consistently across letters and numbers for strong, cohesive display typography.
Capitals are wide and assertive, while lowercase maintains clear, simplified structures that prioritize solidity over delicacy. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, producing a cohesive system suited to large sizes and quick scanning.
