A compact sans with chunky, even strokes and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves lean toward superelliptical shapes, giving bowls and counters a soft, squared-off feel rather than true circles. Terminals are consistently rounded, corners are eased, and joins stay clean and solid, creating a dense, poster-like texture. Proportions are tight with short extenders, and letterforms show slight idiosyncrasies (notably in diagonals and some uppercase curves) that add character while keeping a cohesive rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact text like headlines, posters, packaging labels, brand marks, and social graphics where a compact, friendly display voice is needed. It holds up well in large sizes and benefits from generous spacing or roomy layouts to keep the dense forms from feeling crowded.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a slightly retro, hand-made warmth. Its sturdy shapes and softened corners feel friendly and informal, while the compressed, weighty presence adds a confident, attention-getting punch.
Designed to deliver a warm, approachable display sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, balancing strong presence with soft, playful shaping. The consistent stroke weight and simplified forms suggest an emphasis on bold legibility and a distinctive, characterful texture in titles and branding.
Round letters such as O/C/G/Q read as squarish ovals with softened corners, and the numerals match the same blocky, rounded logic for consistent texture. The ampersand and punctuation follow the same sturdy, simplified construction, supporting bold display settings without feeling ornate.
