A heavy display serif with broad proportions and softly rounded geometry. Strokes are largely uniform, but terminals and joins widen into subtle flares that read like softened, sculpted serifs rather than sharp bracketed details. Counters are generous and often circular, giving letters a buoyant, inflated feel, while shoulders and bowls stay smooth and continuous. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with single-storey forms and large apertures; the overall rhythm is bold and even, with minimal fine detail and an emphasis on solid silhouettes.
Best suited to posters, punchy headlines, and prominent branding where weight and silhouette carry the message. It can work well for packaging, labels, and merchandise graphics, especially where a retro or athletic voice is desired and short text needs to feel substantial.
The tone is upbeat and assertive, blending a vintage, poster-like presence with a friendly softness. Its rounded massing and flared endings make it feel energetic and approachable rather than formal, with a hint of classic sports and mid-century display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through broad forms, rounded counters, and flared terminals that add character without relying on fine contrast. It prioritizes legible, iconic lettershapes for display settings and high-visibility messaging.
The numerals and capitals maintain strong, simple shapes that hold up well at large sizes, with pronounced curves and clear interior spaces. Spacing appears designed for impact rather than delicacy, producing dense, attention-grabbing word shapes in the sample text.
