This typeface uses heavy, smoothly rounded strokes with a slightly squarish, geometric construction. Curves are broad and even, counters are generous, and joins stay clean, giving letters a solid, compact silhouette without feeling cramped. The lowercase is straightforward and highly readable, with simple, single-storey forms where expected and wide openings on characters like c, e, and s. Numerals and capitals maintain the same sturdy rhythm, with round forms that feel controlled and consistent across the set.
Best suited to display roles where a clear, emphatic voice is needed—headlines, brand marks, posters, and packaging. It also works well for short UI labels or signage thanks to its open counters and sturdy letterforms, especially at medium to large sizes.
Overall, the tone is confident and approachable, combining a utilitarian clarity with a subtly retro, sign-like presence. The rounded finishing and ample internal space keep it from feeling harsh, while the weight and compact shapes add emphasis and immediacy.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, modern sans voice with softened geometry for warmth and legibility. It balances clear construction with a small amount of distinctive internal shaping to help set it apart in branding and display settings.
Round letters show a distinctive internal shaping that reads as a crisp, cut-in highlight effect, adding character to O/Q and similar forms without becoming decorative. Diagonals (V/W/X) are strong and stable, and the set keeps a consistent, no-nonsense texture in lines of text.
