A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with blocky geometry and consistently softened corners. Strokes are monolinear and uniform, with squarish bowls and counters that read as rounded squares rather than circles. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short ascenders/descenders, while the uppercase maintains broad, compact proportions. Apertures are generally tight and counters are small but clean, producing a dense, sturdy texture in text. Numerals follow the same superelliptical construction with squared-off curves and minimal modulation.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, branding marks, packaging, and bold on-screen UI labels. It works especially well where a friendly, chunky voice is desired and large sizes can preserve the small counters and tight apertures.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a playful, game-like sturdiness. Its rounded-square forms feel retro and friendly, leaning toward comic and display sensibilities rather than neutral corporate modernism. The dense silhouettes and softened corners give it a cushioned, fun presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a soft, rounded-square personality—combining sturdy, geometric construction with approachable corners. It prioritizes silhouette and punchy texture for display use while maintaining enough regularity to set short blocks of text.
In continuous text, the heavy weight and compact internal spaces create strong word shapes and high visual impact, but fine differentiation between similar forms can rely on spacing and context. The squared curves and uniform rounding provide a consistent rhythm across letters, numbers, and punctuation shown in the sample.
