A heavy, rounded sans with soft outer curves and mostly closed apertures that create a compact, sturdy silhouette. Strokes are monolinear with minimal modulation, terminals are clean and blunt, and counters are generously rounded, especially in bowls and numerals. Proportions lean slightly wide with a steady rhythm; uppercase forms feel stable and geometric, while lowercase shows single-storey shapes (notably the a and g) that keep the texture informal and smooth. Numerals are large and clear with simple, open constructions and strong verticals.
Best suited for headlines, display copy, branding marks, packaging, and short-to-medium text where a bold, friendly voice is needed. The sturdy shapes and large counters also make it effective for signage and UI titles when you want warmth without losing clarity.
The overall tone is friendly and contemporary, pairing a solid, confident weight with softened geometry. It reads approachable rather than technical, with a mild playful character coming from the rounded bowls and single-storey lowercase forms.
Likely drawn to deliver a modern, approachable sans that stays highly legible at larger sizes while projecting a confident, friendly brand tone. The rounded geometry and simplified lowercase forms suggest an emphasis on readability and contemporary personality rather than strict neutrality.
The design maintains consistent stroke density and curve tension across letters, giving paragraphs a uniform, dark color. Some diagonals and joins (e.g., in K, R, and the diagonals of V/W/X) are crisp and energetic, adding snap to an otherwise soft, rounded system.
