A heavy, rounded sans with chunky strokes and softly squared terminals. Curves are full and circular, producing smooth bowls in letters like O, C, and G, while verticals stay sturdy and even. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g with large counters, and dots on i/j are round and prominent. Overall spacing and proportions favor dense, high-ink forms that keep shapes clear at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short text where a confident, friendly voice is needed—posters, packaging, logos, and social or promotional graphics. Its dense strokes and rounded forms help it stay readable at medium to large sizes and hold up well in high-contrast color applications.
The tone is bold and approachable, with a slightly playful warmth coming from the rounded geometry and generous counters. It reads as contemporary and friendly rather than technical or formal, delivering impact without sharp aggression.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a soft-edged, approachable character. The simplified, rounded construction and sturdy proportions suggest an aim for clear display typography that feels modern, cheerful, and brand-friendly.
Numerals are broad and weighty with simple, legible silhouettes, matching the alphabet’s rounded construction. The uppercase has a strong, poster-like presence, while the lowercase maintains clarity through open apertures and simplified forms.
