A heavy, rounded sans with softly flattened curves and subtly squared terminals. The forms lean geometric—circular bowls in C/O/Q and sturdy verticals—while showing gentle stroke modulation that gives counters a slightly pinched, sculpted feel in places. Proportions are compact and stable, with wide, open apertures and generous interior space, helping the shapes stay clear despite the weight. Lowercase construction is simple and contemporary, with single-storey a and g, short ascenders/descenders, and a generally even, blocky rhythm across words.
Best suited to headlines and short copy where bold shapes and rounded geometry can carry personality—branding, packaging, posters, and storefront or wayfinding-style signage. It can work in larger text blocks when set with comfortable tracking and leading, but it will be most effective at display sizes where its curves and modulation remain crisp.
The overall tone is warm and easygoing, with a mid-century/retro friendliness driven by rounded geometry and chunky silhouettes. It reads confident and upbeat rather than technical, making it feel informal, accessible, and slightly nostalgic.
The design appears aimed at delivering a friendly, high-impact sans that balances geometric structure with soft, approachable rounding. The slight contrast and compact, sturdy proportions suggest an intention to keep the face lively and distinctive while preserving clear word shapes for prominent communication.
Capitals emphasize broad curves and strong vertical stems; the Q uses a short, clean tail and the G features a clear interior bar, both reinforcing the geometric logic. Numerals are large and sturdy with rounded bowls (notably 6/8/9) and straightforward construction intended for high-impact display use.
