A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and a dense, even rhythm. Strokes are monolinear with softly squared terminals and generous curves, giving counters a compact, punched-out feel. Round letters (O, C, G) read as near-circular with flattened joins, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are thick and stable rather than sharp. The lowercase is sturdy and wide with short extenders and single-story forms where shown (notably a and g), maintaining the same blocky, softened geometry as the caps and figures.
Best suited for high-impact display use such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and short callouts where its broad, rounded forms can dominate the page. It can work for short paragraphs at large sizes in advertising or editorial spreads, but the compact apertures and dense counters suggest avoiding small sizes or overly long text blocks.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, combining a sporty, upbeat energy with a distinctly retro, poster-like presence. Its rounded massing feels friendly and informal, while the sturdy shapes keep it confident and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a friendly, geometric softness—prioritizing bold shapes, simple construction, and a cohesive rounded texture that reads quickly in branding and display contexts.
Openings on letters like S and a are relatively tight, and interior spaces in B, 8, and 9 are compact, which increases visual weight in text. The Q has a clear, integrated tail and the numerals are similarly wide and chunky, matching the font’s overall rounded, billboard-ready silhouette.
