A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with slight irregularities that read as hand-inked rather than mechanically perfect. Counters are small and often squarish, and terminals tend to finish bluntly, giving letters a dense, stamp-like color. Curves (C, O, S) feel more superelliptical than circular, and the overall rhythm is tight with minimal internal whitespace.
Best suited for short-form display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and brand marks where a compact, punchy texture is desirable. It can also work for subheads and callouts, especially when you want a casual, handcrafted tone that stays readable.
The font projects a friendly, casual energy with a hint of vintage signage. Its slightly uneven stroke edges and boxy curves add personality and warmth, making it feel approachable and a bit playful rather than corporate or sterile.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-efficient display voice built from soft geometric shapes. By combining rounded-rectangle anatomy with lightly imperfect outlines, it aims to balance clarity with a distinctive, handmade character.
Uppercase forms are sturdy and straightforward, while lowercase introduces more character—single-storey shapes and simplified details keep the texture consistent. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry and remain highly legible at display sizes, with a bold, confident presence.
