A heavy, rounded sans with broad strokes and soft corners that read like squared-off curves. Curves are built from superellipse-like shapes, giving bowls and counters a compact, slightly rectangular feel rather than purely circular geometry. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, with minimal modulation and a steady, even color across lines. Proportions are sturdy and straightforward, balancing wide round letters with more condensed vertical forms for a solid, poster-ready rhythm.
This font performs best where immediate presence and clarity matter: headlines, poster typography, brand wordmarks, packaging callouts, and high-visibility signage. Its dense strokes and rounded corners help it stay readable and steady in bold, short-form messaging, especially in large sizes and simple layouts.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a friendly softness from the rounded shaping. It feels contemporary and practical—more about clear impact than elegance—while staying approachable and upbeat. The overall impression is assertive, stable, and highly legible at display sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a softened, geometric voice—combining strong stroke weight and compact counters with rounded-rectangle construction for a modern, approachable feel. It prioritizes straightforward letterforms and consistent rhythm for reliable, attention-grabbing display typography.
The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g), reinforcing a simplified, contemporary texture. Numerals are similarly robust and open, designed to hold up under tight spacing and strong contrast against backgrounds. Round letters like O/Q/C keep a consistent squarish curvature, which gives text a distinctive, cohesive silhouette.
