A heavy, geometric sans with broadly rounded outer shapes paired with crisply cut, straight-sided interior counters. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness, while terminals and corners are softened into large radii, creating a chunky, sculpted silhouette. The design favors wide bowls and deep curves, but uses squared notches and rectangular apertures in letters like a, e, s, and t, producing a distinctive “carved” look. Spacing appears sturdy and even, with simplified forms and minimal modulation that keep the texture dense and highly legible at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short, high-impact text where its dense weight and rounded geometry can read cleanly. It works especially well in branding, packaging, and signage that benefit from a friendly but commanding voice, and in editorial display settings that want a retro-leaning, graphic texture.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, blending a playful, almost toy-like softness with a strong, assertive presence. Its rounded massing and cutout counters evoke a retro-futurist and pop signage feel, giving headlines a lively, upbeat character without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended as a contemporary display sans that maximizes impact through simplified geometry, rounded corners, and distinctive cutout counters. Its forms prioritize immediate recognition and a strong, cohesive texture for brand-forward typography.
Distinctive details include square counter cut-ins and notch-like joins that add personality and help differentiate similar shapes. Numerals are similarly chunky and geometric, with clear internal openings and a consistent, poster-ready rhythm across the set.
