A heavy, rounded sans with soft terminals and gently inflated strokes that keep corners and joins smooth rather than sharp. Letterforms are compact and slightly irregular in a way that feels intentional, with broad bowls (O, Q, 8, 9) and sturdy verticals that maintain consistent color. Counters are open and simplified, and curves dominate the construction, giving the alphabet a buoyant rhythm. The lowercase follows the same rounded logic, with single-storey a and g and short, friendly-looking ascenders and descenders.
Best suited to display use such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a friendly, soft-edged presence. It also fits children’s materials, casual signage, and social graphics where a warm, approachable tone is more important than a strict, corporate finish.
The overall tone is warm and informal, with a cartoon-like softness that reads as welcoming rather than technical. Its rounded shapes and slightly bouncy proportions suggest kid-friendly, upbeat, and personable messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, rounded, and approachable sans voice with a slightly hand-made, characterful rhythm. It prioritizes friendliness and visual impact through soft geometry, simplified forms, and consistent, chunky strokes.
At larger sizes the rounded details and smooth joins are a defining feature, while at smaller sizes the dense weight and simplified counters can make internal spaces feel tight. The numerals are similarly rounded and sturdy, matching the playful texture of the letters and keeping a consistent, cohesive voice across mixed text and numbers.
