A heavy, rounded sans with broad, almost rectangular proportions and generously thick strokes. Curves are smooth and full, with round counters and slightly softened corners that keep the shapes from feeling sharp. Terminals are clean and blunt, and interior openings tend to be compact, giving letters a dense, high-impact texture in text. The overall rhythm is steady and uniform, with simple, geometric construction and consistent stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for display roles where maximum impact is needed—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and attention-grabbing signage. It also works well for short bursts of text such as callouts, labels, and UI headers where a strong, friendly voice is desired.
The letterforms project a confident, approachable tone—loud and direct without becoming aggressive. Its chunky geometry and rounded interiors create a friendly, contemporary feel that reads as energetic and slightly playful, especially at large sizes.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, high-impact sans that stays approachable through rounded geometry and simple, sturdy forms. The emphasis appears to be on immediate legibility at large sizes and a cohesive, bold texture across letters and numerals for branding-forward applications.
Distinctive details include a sturdy, straight-sided lowercase with prominent bowls, a single-storey-style simplicity in many forms, and numerals that match the same dense, rounded massing for consistent presence. The punctuation and dots appear bold and clearly proportioned, supporting high-contrast figure/ground even in tight settings.
