A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and softly squared terminals. Strokes are uniform and dense, with generous curves in bowls and counters that keep shapes open despite the weight. Corners are consistently eased rather than sharp, giving letters a molded, rubbery feel. The lowercase shows simple, sturdy construction with a single-storey “a,” a looped “g,” and a short-armed “t,” while figures are similarly bulbous and highly legible at display sizes.
Best suited for attention-grabbing headlines, posters, and signage where strong shapes and rounded details remain clear at a distance. It also fits branding and packaging that want a bold, friendly presence, especially for short to medium text blocks and prominent callouts.
The overall tone is warm and upbeat, combining boldness with softness rather than aggression. Its rounded forms and substantial weight read as friendly and confident, with a slightly nostalgic, poster-like character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with an approachable, rounded voice—prioritizing clear silhouettes, soft terminals, and consistent stroke weight for confident display typography.
Spacing appears even and stable, supporting large headlines and short phrases where the thick joins and rounded terminals can be appreciated. The punctuation and numerals match the same chunky, softened geometry, helping text feel cohesive across mixed-case settings.
