A compact, heavy sans with broad, rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and sturdy silhouettes. The proportions skew wide and squat in the capitals while the lowercase keeps a large, blocky presence, aided by a high x-height and short extenders. Terminals are mostly blunt and rounded, and the overall rhythm feels slightly elastic, with open, squared-off bowls and generous interior rounding that keeps shapes legible at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography where impact and immediacy matter: headlines, posters, product packaging, storefront/signage, and branding marks. It can also work for short UI labels or stickers/badges when ample size and spacing are available to preserve clarity.
The tone is bold and approachable, leaning into a playful, comic-adjacent personality rather than a strict corporate neutrality. Its rounded geometry and chunky weight convey friendliness and a tactile, toy-like warmth, with a subtle retro poster feel.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence with a friendly, rounded voice—combining sturdy, billboard-like mass with softened geometry for an inviting, contemporary-retro look.
The numerals and uppercase share the same rounded-rectangle logic, giving headings and short strings a cohesive, logo-ready texture. In paragraph-like settings the heavy color and tight counters can feel intense, so it visually performs best when given space (larger sizes or generous line spacing).
