A heavy, geometric sans with rounded, inflated forms and softened corners. Strokes are broadly even and compact, with prominent counters that read as small circular or oval openings inside large black shapes. Many joins and terminals show angular, chiseled cut-ins and notches that create a slightly carved silhouette, adding texture without introducing contrast. Proportions feel wide and sturdy, with simple, blocky construction in straight-sided letters and very round bowls in O/C/G; numerals follow the same dense, cut-out logic for clear, bold silhouettes.
Best suited to big, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, and bold brand marks where its chunky silhouettes and quirky cut-ins remain legible and expressive. It can work well on packaging and promotional graphics that benefit from a friendly, retro display voice, especially when set with ample spacing and short-to-medium line lengths.
The overall tone is exuberant and playful, leaning toward retro display typography with a toy-like, poster-friendly presence. The notched details add a quirky, handmade edge that keeps the heaviness from feeling purely utilitarian, making the voice feel fun, casual, and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a soft, approachable personality—combining large rounded forms with deliberate notches that add distinctiveness and a crafted feel. It prioritizes graphic presence and recognizability over neutrality, functioning as a characterful display sans for attention-driven typography.
At text sizes the dense weight and small apertures can make spacing feel tight and lettershapes merge, while at larger sizes the carved notches and round counters become a defining character detail. The design reads best when given generous tracking and room to breathe, where its rhythmic cut-ins and rounded massing can show clearly.
