A heavy, rounded sans with low stroke contrast and smooth, continuous curves. The proportions are broad and stable, with generous counters and open apertures that keep interior space clear even at bold sizes. Terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered, and joins are smoothly resolved, giving letters a cohesive, contemporary rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a compact t with a short crossbar, and straightforward, highly readable numerals with consistent weight and spacing.
Best suited to display applications where clarity and impact matter: headlines, brand marks, product packaging, posters, and wayfinding-style signage. The open counters and uncomplicated shapes also make it workable for short paragraphs, UI labels, and bold editorial callouts when ample size and leading are available.
The overall tone is modern and welcoming, balancing firmness with softness. Its rounded geometry and open forms feel friendly and accessible, while the solid weight reads confident and direct for prominent messaging.
The design appears intended as a versatile, high-impact rounded sans that stays legible while projecting a friendly, contemporary personality. Its consistent stroke weight and geometric construction suggest a focus on clean reproduction across print and digital contexts.
Capitals are simple and geometric, with round letters (C, O, Q) leaning toward near-circular forms and diagonals (A, V, W, Y) kept sturdy and even. The spacing and internal shapes remain consistent across the alphabet, supporting a uniform texture in lines of text.
