A heavy, rounded sans with broad, simplified letterforms and minimal stroke modulation. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular bowls with softened joins, while terminals are predominantly flat and blunt, giving counters a compact, closed-in feel at smaller sizes. The uppercase is wide and stable with generous vertical stems; lowercase forms keep simple constructions with single-storey shapes (notably the a and g) and a short, sturdy shoulder on r. Overall spacing reads even and dense, supporting a solid typographic color in paragraphs and headlines.
Best suited to high-impact display use such as headlines, posters, branding, packaging, and short callouts where the dense, rounded mass reads as confident and contemporary. It can work for brief paragraph blocks or UI labels when sizes and spacing allow room for its tight counters and strong weight.
The tone is direct and approachable: loud without feeling aggressive, and contemporary without looking clinical. Its rounded geometry and compact counters add a friendly, slightly playful character while maintaining a strong, dependable presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, geometric sans voice with maximum presence, using rounded construction and simplified forms to stay friendly while remaining unmistakably bold and readable.
Figures are heavy and highly legible, with round forms (0, 8, 9) staying consistent with the circular bowl language. Diagonals in V/W/X/Y/Z are thick and stable, preserving the weight across angles and keeping the texture uniform in all-caps settings.
