A heavy, rounded sans with broad, blocky silhouettes and gently softened corners. Strokes are consistently thick with a stable, even rhythm and modest internal counters, giving letters a compact, punchy presence. Curves are full and smooth (notably in C, G, O, and S), while straight-sided forms like E, F, H, and N keep a firm, geometric stance. The lowercase shows simple, sturdy construction with single-storey a and g, a short-armed t, and generally closed apertures that reinforce the dense, poster-like color.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and bold signage where strong presence and quick readability matter. It can also work for short UI labels or promotional callouts, but the dense letterforms suggest using it sparingly for longer text blocks.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, combining a friendly softness with assertive weight. It reads as modern and casual rather than formal, with a playful, slightly chunky personality that feels welcoming and energetic.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, contemporary voice—pairing thick, dependable shapes with rounded geometry for an approachable display look.
The numerals are equally robust and highly legible at display sizes, with rounded forms and strong vertical emphasis. The font maintains a consistent visual texture across mixed case, and its tight counters and heavy stroke mass make it especially effective where strong typographic presence is needed.
