A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and compact counters that create a dense, high-impact texture. Strokes are largely monolinear with gently softened corners and smooth curve-to-stem joins, keeping forms sturdy rather than sharp. Round letters like O/C/G read as wide, circular-elliptical shapes, while straight-sided letters (E/F/H/N) feel blocky and stable. The lowercase is robust and simplified, with a single-storey a and g, a short-armed r, and a strong, vertical i/j rhythm that holds up at display sizes. Numerals match the letterforms in weight and width, with bold, open curves and a solid, poster-like presence.
Best suited for large-scale typography such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and wayfinding where strong presence and readability matter. It also works well for wordmarks and short branding phrases, especially when a friendly, high-impact voice is needed.
The overall tone is confident and upbeat, with a friendly roundness that keeps the boldness from feeling aggressive. It suggests energetic, contemporary branding with a slight retro sports and signage feel, optimized for quick recognition and big statements.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight with approachable, rounded geometry, prioritizing clarity and punch in display contexts. The simplified lowercase and sturdy figures indicate an intention for bold messaging and brand-forward typography rather than delicate text setting.
The typeface favors large internal shapes and broad curves over fine detail, producing a consistent, even color in lines of text. Wide capitals and sturdy lowercase create a prominent rhythm, and the squarish terminals and softened angles help maintain legibility in thick strokes.
