A heavy, geometric sans with large, rounded bowls and smooth, continuous curves paired with flat terminals. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal modulation, and counters stay open but compact, giving letters a dense, powerful silhouette. Proportions are sturdy with a relatively high x-height, short ascenders/descenders, and broad curves that keep forms readable at size. The rhythm is tight and efficient, with straightforward joins and simplified shapes that prioritize clarity over detail.
Best suited to display settings where strong impact is needed: headlines, campaign graphics, logos/wordmarks, packaging, and bold UI moments such as hero banners or navigation. The dense, rounded shapes also work well for short emphatic copy and large-scale signage where quick recognition is important.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, combining a friendly roundness with a firm, no-nonsense presence. It feels contemporary and energetic, suited to messaging that should read as direct, approachable, and confident.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence with clean geometric construction and friendly rounded forms, producing a modern sans that reads clearly at large sizes and holds its own in high-contrast layouts.
Round letters (like O/C/G) lean strongly on circular construction, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are wide and assertive, reinforcing a sporty, headline-driven character. Numerals match the letters’ weight and curvature, maintaining consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
