A heavy, rounded sans with soft, superellipse-like curves and squared-off terminals. Strokes stay essentially uniform, producing solid, compact letterforms with generous internal counters for the weight. Round characters (O, C, G, e, o) read as rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles, while straight-sided letters (E, F, H, N) keep broad verticals and clean, blunt ends. The lowercase has single-storey a and g, a compact r, and a sturdy, straight-stemmed t; numerals are similarly blocky and consistent, with large, simple shapes that hold up at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and attention-grabbing brand applications where weight and rounded geometry can carry the visual voice. It also fits packaging and logo wordmarks that want a friendly, bold presence; for long text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where counters and spacing can breathe.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, with a toy-like softness that feels contemporary yet slightly retro. Its rounded geometry and thick strokes convey friendliness and confidence, leaning more toward casual branding energy than formal editorial neutrality.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a soft-edged, geometric personality—combining strong fill and simple construction with rounded-rectangle forms that feel modern and approachable.
Spacing and silhouettes emphasize strong, poster-like rhythm: wide stems, short joins, and softened corners create a cohesive, “padded” texture in words. The distinctive superellipse construction gives the type a consistent, designed-in geometry that reads clearly even in dense, all-caps settings.
