A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and smooth, circular bowls. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and joins are clean and sturdy, producing a dense, even color. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, while apertures remain clear enough to keep forms readable at large sizes. Lowercase shows a tall, assertive x-height with simple, contemporary constructions and short, robust terminals.
Best suited for high-impact display work such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and attention-grabbing signage. It can also work for short UI labels or callouts where strong emphasis is needed, but the dense weight favors larger sizes over extended reading.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, projecting confidence and approachability at the same time. Its rounded geometry softens the mass of the letterforms, giving it a friendly, contemporary voice that feels energetic rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a friendly, geometric character—prioritizing bold presence, simple shapes, and consistent rhythm for modern display typography.
Capitals read with strong, poster-like presence and generous width, while the lowercase keeps a compact, efficient rhythm suited to short bursts of text. Numerals match the same chunky, rounded construction, maintaining a consistent texture across mixed alphanumerics.
