A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and a strong, blocky silhouette. Terminals are mostly blunt or softly squared, and joins are robust, giving letters a compact, sturdy feel. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey constructions (notably a and g), with generous bowls and short, solid ascenders and descenders that keep the texture even in continuous text.
Best suited for display settings where impact and clarity are needed: headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, packaging, and short callouts. It can work for brief paragraphs at larger sizes, but its dense texture and small counters suggest avoiding long-form body text at small sizes.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a friendly softness that tempers its weight. It reads as confident and attention-grabbing without feeling sharp or aggressive, leaning toward a casual, contemporary voice.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, friendly presence with simple, rounded forms that remain highly legible at a glance. The consistent stroke weight and compact shapes suggest an emphasis on bold communication, contemporary branding, and cheerful display typography.
Spacing appears tight-to-moderate at display sizes, creating a dark, cohesive rhythm across words and lines. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, matching the alphabet’s sturdy, geometric character.
