A heavy, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and largely even, with terminals often cut on diagonals or shaped into notched wedges, creating a chiseled, sculpted texture inside otherwise soft forms. Counters tend to be squarish and compact (notably in O/Q/8 and similar shapes), and curves resolve into flattened arcs rather than perfect circles. The overall rhythm is blocky and stable, with distinctive ink-trap-like nicks and triangular cut-ins that add sharp accents to the silhouettes.
Best suited to headlines and short display settings where its sculpted cuts and chunky counters can be appreciated—posters, title cards, branding marks, packaging, and bold UI labels. It can work for brief captions or pull quotes, but the strong stylistic nicks and compact counters are most effective at medium-to-large sizes.
The font reads bold and upbeat, combining toy-like softness with punchy, graphic edges. Its chunky forms and stylized cuts evoke mid-century display lettering and arcade-era signage, giving it a confident, fun, slightly quirky personality.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that blends rounded geometric construction with sharp, carved details to create a memorable, retro-leaning voice. Its consistent heavy stroke and compact interior spaces prioritize punch, silhouette recognition, and a playful graphic presence over neutral text setting.
Uppercase forms feel emblematic and poster-ready, while lowercase keeps the same carved, rounded-rect logic for a consistent texture in words. The numerals are especially stout and sign-like, with enclosed shapes that stay legible at large sizes and a strong, compact stance.
