A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and a superellipse-driven construction. Strokes are thick and uniform with softened corners and blunt terminals, producing a dense, solid color on the page. Counters are compact and often rectangular-oval in feel, while curves (C, G, O, S) read as inflated rounded shapes rather than true circles. The lowercase keeps simple, sturdy forms with single-storey a and g, short apertures, and minimal modulation, emphasizing mass and consistency over delicacy.
Best suited for large-size applications where its chunky silhouettes and softened corners can deliver strong impact—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and promotional graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when you want a friendly, high-presence voice, but the compact apertures suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a toy-like softness that feels upbeat and contemporary while nodding to retro display lettering. Its inflated geometry and compact openings give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice that reads friendly rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with rounded, superellipse-like forms that stay clean and contemporary. It prioritizes strong silhouette, friendly geometry, and a dense typographic color for display-led communication.
Numbers match the same rounded-rectangle logic, with the 0 featuring a small, centered counter and the 1 rendered as a thick, simplified pillar. The rhythm in text is tight and compact, and the small apertures in letters like e, a, s, and c make the texture feel dense at larger sizes.
