A heavy, rounded sans with wide proportions and softened, squared curves that read like superelliptical forms. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a sturdy, poster-like texture. Counters are relatively compact (notably in O, P, R, and a), and joins/terminals are blunt and clean, giving the letters a solid, sculpted feel. Numerals match the same blocky geometry, with broad shapes and tight interior spaces for strong color on the page.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display copy where strong presence and instant legibility are needed. Works well for branding, packaging, and signage that benefits from a compact, high-ink look and friendly geometric shapes, especially at large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, with a friendly softness from the rounded corners balancing the weight. It feels energetic and slightly retro, suggesting athletic branding, playful headlines, and high-impact messaging that still wants to appear approachable.
Designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a softened geometric voice—combining chunky weight and wide stance with rounded, superellipse-like contours for an approachable, modern display style.
Spacing and silhouettes create a dense, even rhythm in text, favoring impact over airiness. The square-ish rounds and flattened curves make the design feel engineered and contemporary while retaining a classic display sensibility.
