A heavy, geometric sans with compact counters and generously rounded curves paired with blunt, blocky terminals. Many glyphs show distinctive cut-in notches and wedge-like joins that create a chiseled, modular feel without adding stroke contrast. The lowercase has a large x-height and simplified forms, while punctuation-like details (dots, inner counters) are small and tight, reinforcing a dense, poster-ready texture. Numerals and capitals share the same sturdy, sculpted construction, keeping color even and dark across lines of text.
Best suited to display sizes where its chunky silhouettes and notched details can be appreciated—posters, big headings, packaging, and punchy brand marks. It can work for short subheads or callouts, but the dense counters and decorative cut-ins suggest using it sparingly for longer reading.
The tone is bold and upbeat, reading as retro and toy-like rather than formal. Its carved details add character and motion, giving headlines a lively, slightly mischievous personality with strong visual impact.
Likely designed as an attention-grabbing display sans that blends friendly rounded geometry with carved, stencil-like quirks for a distinctive, graphic voice. The goal appears to be strong presence and memorable shapes rather than neutrality.
The signature notches and compact apertures become more noticeable in longer text, creating a patterned rhythm that can feel decorative. Rounded bowls and thick joins help maintain a cohesive silhouette across mixed-case settings, while the angular cut-ins keep it from feeling purely soft or bubble-like.
