A heavy, rounded sans with a consistent left-leaning slant and compact counters that create dense, punchy letterforms. Strokes are monolinear and broadly inflated, with softened corners and subtly irregular geometry that keeps the texture lively rather than mechanical. Uppercase shapes are squat and blocky, while lowercase forms are equally hefty, with single-storey a and g and minimal aperture opening. Numerals follow the same chunky, rounded construction, maintaining a uniform, headline-oriented rhythm across the set.
Best suited to display settings where strong presence and quick recognition are needed—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, playful branding, and short logo wordmarks. It can work for large-size editorial accents or social graphics, but the dense counters and tight texture favor shorter bursts of text over extended reading.
The overall tone is energetic and approachable, with a comic, poster-ready confidence. The pronounced slant and bulbous forms give it a sense of motion and cheeky informality, leaning into a retro display feel rather than a sober, editorial voice.
Designed to deliver a friendly, high-impact display voice with rounded, inflated forms and a continuous forward-leaning stance. The emphasis appears to be on creating a distinctive, energetic silhouette that holds up well at large sizes and in bold promotional copy.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and visually massed, which strengthens impact in short phrases but can make longer lines feel heavy. The slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping the font read as a cohesive, stylized system.
