A heavy, geometric sans with broad, rounded curves and largely uniform stroke thickness. Counters are open and circular (notably in O, o, e, and 8), while terminals are cleanly cut with minimal shaping. Proportions lean compact with a strong vertical stance; lowercase forms are straightforward and sturdy, and the overall spacing reads even and well-controlled in text.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium text where impact and clarity matter—brand marks, packaging, signage, UI headers, and promotional graphics. It holds up especially well at display sizes, where the rounded geometry and strong counters remain highly legible.
The tone is contemporary and upbeat, combining a no-nonsense solidity with a friendly, rounded warmth. Its strong silhouettes feel confident and direct, making the voice read as clear and energetic rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears aimed at a versatile, contemporary workhorse for display typography, prioritizing clear geometry, high presence, and uncomplicated letterforms for broad visual compatibility across branding and editorial applications.
Distinctive details include the single-storey a and g, a simple vertical i with a round dot, and numerals with robust, poster-like presence. The Q features a clear tail, and the S and G maintain smooth, geometric curvature that supports strong word shapes at larger sizes.
