A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and a pronounced superellipse construction. Strokes are monoline and highly uniform, with squared-off terminals softened by large corner radii, producing blocky counters and sturdy silhouettes. Curves tend toward rounded-rectangle shapes rather than perfect circles, and joins stay clean and mechanical. Uppercase forms read compact and stable, while the lowercase keeps a simple, single-storey structure where applicable, maintaining a consistent, chunky rhythm in text.
Best suited to large-scale applications where its mass and rounded geometry can carry a message: headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and storefront or wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when a friendly, high-impact voice is needed, though its heaviness makes it less ideal for long body text.
The overall tone is friendly and confident, with a sporty, poster-like presence. Its rounded corners and inflated shapes feel approachable and slightly playful, evoking retro signage and bold packaging rather than formal editorial typography.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a soft, approachable edge, combining geometric structure with rounded-rectangle curves for a distinctive, contemporary-retro display voice.
The numerals and capitals are particularly impactful, with generous interior space despite the heavy weight. The design’s geometry stays consistent across the set, favoring simple constructions and strong horizontal/vertical emphasis, which helps it maintain clarity in short lines and large sizes.
