A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and smooth, geometric curves. Strokes are consistently thick and largely monolinear, with generously rounded bowls (notably in C, O, and G) and clean, open apertures that keep counters readable at large sizes. Terminals are mostly blunt or softly rounded, and joins are solid and stable, giving letters a blocky, high-impact silhouette. The lowercase shows single‑storey forms (a and g) with simple construction and a sturdy, vertical rhythm; figures are equally bold with rounded shapes and clear differentiation.
Best suited to display roles where maximum presence is desired: headlines, poster typography, brand marks, packaging, and bold UI moments like hero banners or section headers. It can work for short bursts of text, but its dense color is most effective when used with ample leading and restrained line lengths.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded geometry. It feels built for loud, optimistic messaging—clear, no-nonsense, and approachable rather than technical or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, modern sans voice with approachable rounded geometry, prioritizing clarity and visual mass for attention-grabbing titles and branding applications.
Spacing in the sample text reads slightly tight for continuous paragraphs at this weight, which increases density and impact. The design’s rounded forms and strong stems create a uniform texture that holds together well in short lines and big sizes.
