A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and smooth, geometric construction. Strokes are largely monolinear with gently squared terminals, and curves are built from wide arcs that keep counters large and open. The uppercase is stable and architectural, while the lowercase shows a compact, contemporary rhythm with single-storey forms and simplified joins. Numerals and punctuation follow the same wide, sturdy logic, producing a consistent, high-impact texture in text.
Best suited to display-driven applications such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where width and weight can create strong emphasis. It can work for short UI labels, packaging callouts, and signage where a bold, friendly sans is needed, but its expansive set is more impactful at larger sizes than in long, space-sensitive text.
The overall tone is modern and confident, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded geometry and generous counters. Its broad stance reads energetic and assertive, making it feel at home in contemporary, tech-forward and sporty contexts without becoming overly playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, geometric sans that prioritizes bold presence and approachable clarity. Its wide proportions and rounded construction suggest a focus on modern branding and attention-grabbing typographic systems rather than compact, text-first composition.
Round letters like O/C/G are notably open and expansive, and the wide set gives words a strong horizontal presence. The design maintains uniform weight and clean curves across sizes, helping it stay legible even when used in dense, bold headlines.
