A heavy, rounded sans with blocky silhouettes built from soft-cornered rectangular forms. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and curves (like C, G, O) feel squarish rather than circular, giving a superellipse-like geometry. Edges and terminals show intentional irregularity—slight waviness, flattened joins, and uneven counters—that creates a stamped or cut-out texture. Spacing appears generous and the overall rhythm is bouncy, with sturdy verticals and compact interior spaces that keep the color dense in text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and playful branding where texture and personality are desirable. It can work for brief blocks of text at larger sizes, but the dense stroke weight and tight counters may reduce clarity in small sizes or long-form reading.
The overall tone is upbeat and informal, balancing friendly rounded forms with a rough, tactile finish. It reads as bold and attention-seeking without feeling sharp or corporate, suggesting a crafted, analog personality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, approachable sans voice with a deliberately imperfect, handmade texture. Its softened rectangular construction and heavy weight aim for strong presence and legibility while projecting a casual, craft-forward aesthetic.
Uppercase forms are compact and poster-like, while lowercase maintains the same chunky structure with simplified details and sturdy bowls. Numerals match the heavy, rounded construction and maintain clear, sign-like presence at display sizes.
