A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and compact internal counters. Strokes are monolinear in feel, but many joins and terminals resolve into angled, wedge-like cuts that add a sharp, graphic edge to otherwise soft forms. Curves are full and elliptical, with flattened spots and tight apertures in letters like a, e, and s, creating a dense, ink-trap-like rhythm at display sizes. Uppercase forms are blocky and stable; lowercase maintains a sturdy, single-storey construction with a short-armed r and a squared, stem-led t. Figures are equally stout, with rounded bowls on 6/8/9 and angular gestures on 2/4/7 that match the font’s chiseled terminal language.
Best suited to display typography where its mass and distinctive wedge terminals can read clearly—headlines, poster titles, brand marks, event graphics, and packaging. It can also work for short UI or signage labels when a strong, friendly voice is desired, but the tight apertures make it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and friendly with a distinctly retro, cartoon-adjacent energy. The mix of rounded massing and sharp wedge cuts gives it a sporty, arcade/poster feel—confident, loud, and designed to be noticed rather than to disappear into body copy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with approachable, rounded shapes while adding personality through angled, carved-looking terminals. It balances warmth and toughness, aiming for a bold, graphic presence that feels modernized-retro and highly brandable.
Spacing appears generous, helping prevent the tight counters from clogging in words set at larger sizes. The italic-like slant is absent; instead, motion comes from the angled terminals and the forward-leaning wedges, especially visible in S, s, and the diagonal-heavy letters (K, V, W, X).
