A heavy, rounded sans with softened corners and distinct stroke modulation that creates a slightly “inked” texture even in clean outlines. The forms are broad and squat with generous width and compact internal counters, producing a dense, high-impact silhouette. Terminals tend to be rounded or blunt, and several letters show subtle scooped notches and curved joins that emphasize a molded, almost stamped look. Overall spacing reads steady and blocky, with a consistent, unified rhythm across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display settings where impact matters: posters, large headlines, brand marks, packaging, and short emphatic phrases. It holds up well in bold, high-contrast layouts and works particularly effectively when given room to breathe, rather than in long text passages at small sizes.
The tone leans retro and playful, recalling mid-century signage and lively editorial headlines. Its chunky shapes and soft edges feel friendly and approachable while still delivering strong, attention-grabbing presence.
The design appears intended as a bold display sans that merges rounded, approachable geometry with noticeable stroke contrast for a distinctive, vintage-leaning voice. It prioritizes silhouette strength and graphic character over neutrality, making it ideal for expressive branding and headline typography.
Capitals are especially imposing and monolithic, while the lowercase keeps the same weighty personality with simplified, compact bowls and apertures. Numerals match the headline character, maintaining the same rounded geometry and dense color for cohesive titling and numbering.
