A heavy, rounded sans with a forward slant and a distinctly soft, superelliptical construction. Strokes are thick and even, with rounded rectangle terminals and corners that create a cushiony silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and often squarish-oval, giving letters a compact, stamped feel, while proportions stay broad and stable across the set. The italic motion reads more like a lively lean than a calligraphic slant, maintaining consistent stroke weight and smooth curves throughout.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, brand marks, and short punchy phrases where its rounded heft can carry personality. It works well on packaging and posters, and in sports- or entertainment-leaning branding where a friendly, high-impact tone is desired. For longer text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a bold, cartoon-adjacent friendliness. Its inflated shapes and energetic slant suggest motion and optimism, leaning into a retro-pop and sporty sensibility rather than a formal or technical one.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a warm, soft-edged look, combining a bold display presence with approachable rounded forms. Its consistent, superelliptical shaping and energetic slant prioritize character and momentum over neutrality.
The uppercase is particularly blocky and billboard-ready, while the lowercase retains the same rounded geometry for a cohesive voice. Numerals match the chunky, soft-cornered style and read best at display sizes where the interior openings can breathe.
