A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and sturdy, uniform stroke weight. Curves are smooth and generous, with large counters and generally open apertures that keep forms clear even at dense weights. Terminals are mostly blunt with softened corners, giving a slightly bulbous, cushiony silhouette; diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are strong and stable rather than sharp. The lowercase is compact and readable, with a single-storey “a” and “g” and a short, solid “t” crossbar; numerals are thick and simplified for clear, high-impact display.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where bold, attention-grabbing type is needed with a friendly edge. It also works well for packaging and signage thanks to its open counters and clear shapes at larger sizes.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a confident, poster-like presence. Its rounded geometry softens the extreme weight, creating a friendly, contemporary feel that reads as energetic rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact while maintaining approachability through rounded construction and simplified, highly legible forms. It prioritizes clarity and character in display settings, balancing strong geometry with soft edges.
Spacing appears intentionally generous for a dense weight, helping letters avoid clogging in running text. Round letters like O/C/G stay wide and open, while straight-sided forms (E/F/H/N) emphasize a clean, structured rhythm.
