A heavy, rounded sans with smooth curves and mostly uniform stroke thickness. Letterforms lean toward geometric construction—circular bowls, straight terminals, and clean joins—while keeping soft corners that prevent a harsh feel. Counters are open and generously sized for the weight, with clear apertures in forms like “c,” “e,” and “s.” The overall rhythm is even and steady, with sturdy capitals and a straightforward lowercase featuring a two-storey “a” and single-storey “g.” Numerals are robust and highly legible, with simple, unembellished shapes.
Well suited to headlines and display typography where strong presence is needed, as well as UI labels and navigation where quick letter recognition matters. Its sturdy forms also work for signage and posters, and for short blocks of marketing copy when a confident, clean voice is desired.
The tone is contemporary and dependable, projecting clarity and confidence without feeling aggressive. Its rounded geometry reads approachable and broadly neutral, fitting both corporate and product-facing communication.
The design appears intended as a versatile, modern sans that balances geometric structure with friendly rounding, delivering high-impact legibility for contemporary interfaces and brand systems.
At text sizes the dense weight creates strong color and emphasis, while the open counters help maintain readability. The shapes appear optimized for straightforward recognition—distinct “I,” “l,” and “1,” and a clear “0” that remains simple rather than stylized.
