A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and substantial, producing compact counters and tight inner spaces, especially in letters like a, e, s, and g. Curves tend toward superelliptical bowls rather than perfect circles, while straight stems and crossbars keep a disciplined, blocky rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, short ascenders/descenders, and a sturdy, almost modular feel; figures are wide and squat with strongly rounded interiors.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and identity work where a bold, friendly voice is needed. It can work well on packaging and signage thanks to its strong silhouettes and simple geometry, particularly when set with generous tracking or at larger sizes to preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone is approachable and upbeat, pairing robustness with soft edges. It reads as contemporary and friendly rather than technical, with a confident, poster-ready presence that still feels personable.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, geometric sans voice with softened superelliptical forms—combining the impact of a heavy display face with a welcoming, rounded texture. The consistent corner rounding and compact proportions emphasize recognizability and punch in large-scale typography.
Round terminals and large corner radii give the face a distinctive “soft block” silhouette that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The heavy weight and compact apertures suggest better performance at display sizes, where the rounded geometry and tight counters remain clear.
