A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and softened corners throughout. Curves are broad and smooth, with minimal stroke modulation and an overall dense, poster-like color on the page. Counters tend to be tight and simplified, and joins are sturdy, producing a chunky rhythm with clear, stable verticals and straightforward horizontals. Terminals are generally blunt or gently rounded rather than tapered, reinforcing the font’s solid, compressed feel at display sizes.
Best suited to large-scale applications where weight and shape can carry the message—headlines, posters, logos, packaging, labels, and bold UI moments such as hero banners. It also fits sports graphics, event promotion, and any design needing a friendly-but-forceful typographic voice.
The tone is bold and approachable: strong enough for attention-grabbing headlines, but softened by rounded geometry that keeps it from feeling harsh. Its chunky shapes and compact spacing lean toward a retro, sign-painting and sports-poster energy, with a playful friendliness in the lowercase.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a softened geometric personality: thick strokes, compact proportions, and rounded-rectangle curves that remain legible and cohesive in bold display settings.
The most distinctive visual trait is the combination of very heavy weight with superelliptical curves, giving letters a “pillow” solidity. The lowercase shows simple, sturdy forms with minimal finesse details, prioritizing impact and consistency over delicate readability at small sizes.
