A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes stay broadly even, with tight counters and short apertures that give letters a dense, poster-like color. Curves tend toward squarish bowls (notably in C/O/Q and the numerals), while joins and terminals feel blunt and sturdy. The lowercase shows single-storey forms and a short, weighty feel overall, with wide, blocky shoulders on m/n and a squat, grounded rhythm across words.
Best suited for headlines and display settings where strong presence and quick recognition are needed, such as posters, branding wordmarks, packaging, and bold UI or signage moments. It can work for short bursts of copy, but its dense counters and compact openings favor larger sizes and moderate line lengths.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, mixing a friendly softness with an assertive, high-impact presence. Its chunky geometry and rounded squareness evoke a retro, display-driven personality that feels energetic rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a warm, geometric voice—using superelliptic, rounded-square forms to create a distinctive silhouette while keeping the construction simple and highly consistent across the alphabet and numerals.
At text sizes the tight apertures and dense interior spaces can make shapes read as more solid blocks, while larger sizes reveal the distinctive superelliptic curves and the deliberate squareness of bowls and counters. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic, producing a consistent, signage-like texture.
