A heavy, rounded sans with geometric construction and soft, cushioned curves. Strokes are thick and even, with large counters and smooth joins that keep letterforms open despite the weight. Terminals are mostly clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm is compact and sturdy, with broad, circular forms (notably in O, C, and G) balancing straighter-sided shapes in E, F, H, and N. Lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms for a and g, with a clear, round i dot and sturdy ascenders and descenders; figures are bold and highly legible with wide, stable silhouettes.
Best used for display settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and attention-grabbing UI moments. It can also work for short bursts of text (calls-to-action, labels, navigation) where a friendly, high-impact voice is desired.
The tone is upbeat and accessible, combining a contemporary geometric feel with a warm, softened presence. Its mass and rounded shaping read as confident and friendly rather than aggressive, making it well suited to energetic, consumer-facing design.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a smooth, approachable character—pairing geometric, rounded forms with solid stroke weight for clear recognition and strong presence in modern layouts.
The design emphasizes clarity at large sizes: wide apertures, pronounced bowls, and minimal detailing prevent the heavy weight from clogging. The Q’s tail and the G’s internal bar add distinctive, recognizable signatures without breaking the overall simplicity.
