A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are thick and steady with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to finish bluntly, giving the letterforms a sturdy, cut-out feel. Curved letters like C, G, O, and Q read as superelliptical bowls with flattened sides, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) lean into chunky, wedge-like joins. The overall rhythm is tight and energetic, with simplified counters and consistently rounded corners that keep the texture cohesive across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short-form messaging where its dense weight and rounded geometry can read clearly and add character. It can work well for packaging, brand marks, signage, and attention-grabbing UI labels, especially where a friendly but forceful voice is desired.
The tone is upbeat and slightly eccentric, pairing a strong, poster-like presence with approachable rounded shapes. Its quirks—especially in diagonals and some asymmetric details—add a hand-made, display-forward personality without drifting into script or novelty lettering.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, using rounded-rectangular geometry to keep forms friendly while remaining loud and graphic. Its simplified shapes and consistent stroke treatment prioritize clear silhouettes and a distinctive, display-oriented texture.
Uppercase forms feel assertive and sign-like, while lowercase stays robust and highly legible at display sizes. Numerals are similarly weighty and simplified, matching the blocky, rounded construction of the alphabet.
