A heavy, rounded sans with largely uniform stroke weight and softened terminals throughout. Curves are full and circular, and corners are consistently eased rather than sharply cut, giving letters a gentle, molded feel. Proportions read compact and sturdy, with wide counters in forms like O, D, and P and a generally even rhythm across the alphabet. The lowercase shows single-storey construction for a and g, simple vertical stems with rounded ends, and clear, open apertures that keep shapes legible at display sizes.
Well-suited for short-to-medium display text where a friendly, bold voice is needed—such as headlines, brand marks, packaging, posters, and straightforward signage. It can also work for UI labels or calls-to-action when a softer, more approachable tone is desired, though its weight and compactness make it most effective above body-text sizes.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a casual, slightly playful character driven by the rounded geometry and generous curves. It feels contemporary and friendly rather than technical, with a confident, chunky presence that reads well in attention-grabbing settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, modern sans presence while avoiding harshness, using rounded geometry and uniform strokes to create an inviting, highly legible display style.
Round dots on i and j and the soft-shouldered joins in letters like n and m reinforce the smooth, cohesive system. Numerals follow the same rounded, sturdy construction, with clear differentiation and a consistent weight that matches the letters in mixed text.
