A heavy, rounded sans with smooth curves, compact proportions, and largely uniform stroke weight. Counters are open but relatively small for the weight, giving the letters a dense, solid color on the page. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, while bowls and arcs stay close to circular geometry. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a simple vertical t with a short crossbar, and a straightforward, highly legible set of figures with rounded forms.
Best suited to display sizes where its dense weight and rounded shapes deliver clear impact—headlines, posters, identity work, and bold UI moments like feature callouts. It can also work for short blocks of text when ample size and spacing are available, but its heavy color will dominate in longer passages.
The overall tone is modern and confident, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded geometry. Its strong, even rhythm feels straightforward and utilitarian rather than expressive or decorative, making it read as dependable and contemporary.
Designed to provide a sturdy, contemporary sans voice with friendly geometry and strong presence. The emphasis appears to be on clarity and visual impact through compact shapes, consistent curves, and a uniform, no-nonsense stroke behavior.
The uppercase has a sturdy, squared stance with generous weight, while the lowercase keeps a slightly more compact, functional feel. Diagonals (like in A, V, W, X) appear robust and stable, and rounded letters (C, O, Q) maintain consistent curvature that reinforces a cohesive, geometric voice.
