A heavy, rounded sans with a superellipse-driven construction: bowls and counters read like softened rectangles, and terminals end in broad, squared-off curves rather than sharp cuts. Curves are wide and stable, with low stroke modulation and a generally compact, blocky silhouette that keeps letters visually dense. Apertures tend to be tight, and counters are generously rounded, producing a consistent, cushiony rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Numerals match the letterforms’ chunky geometry, with simplified shapes and strong vertical presence that holds up at large sizes.
Best suited for short, high-impact applications such as headlines, posters, display typography, logos, packaging, and bold signage where its dense shapes and rounded-rect geometry can read clearly. In longer text, it works most comfortably at larger sizes where the tight apertures and compact counters have room to breathe.
The overall tone is confident and approachable, combining a punchy, poster-like weight with friendly rounded corners. It feels energetic and slightly retro—more fun and sporty than corporate—while still reading as clean and straightforward.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence with a friendly, modernized geometric feel—using rounded-rectangle forms to create a sturdy, approachable display voice that stays clean and consistent across letters and numerals.
The design leans on squared curves and broad joins, which creates a strong, even color in text but can make interior spaces feel compact in smaller settings. Uppercase forms are especially stout and geometric, while lowercase maintains the same softened-rectangle logic for a cohesive voice.
