A heavy, geometric sans with blocky construction and generously rounded corners. Strokes stay consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many forms blend straight segments with broad, quarter-round curves, creating a soft, squared-off silhouette. Counters are simplified and often small relative to the mass, with circular/oval bowls and tight apertures that emphasize solidity. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, a short-armed r, and a simple, vertical i/j with round dots; overall spacing feels compact and display-oriented.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where its heavy color and distinctive shapes can read clearly, such as posters, product packaging, logos, titles, and playful branding systems. It can also work for large-format wayfinding or labels when generous size and spacing are available.
The letterforms read upbeat and approachable, with a bouncy, cartoonish rhythm that suggests retro signage and playful branding. Its chunky shapes and softened corners give it a friendly, toy-like tone rather than a technical or formal one.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, stylized geometric voice—favoring simple, sturdy structures and rounded corners for a memorable, approachable display presence.
Several glyphs feature notch-like cut-ins and squared terminals that add character and help differentiate forms at larger sizes. Numerals are bold and simplified, matching the alphabet’s rounded-rectangle geometry and maintaining a consistent, punchy color on the page.
