A condensed, softly rounded sans with an upright-leaning italic posture and compact proportions. Strokes are sturdy and mostly uniform, with rounded-rectangle construction showing through in the bowls and counters. Terminals are smooth and blunted, and curves stay tight and controlled, giving letters a slightly pinched, vertical rhythm. Ascenders tend to be tall and narrow, while the x-height sits comparatively low, creating a lively mix of long verticals and small internal spaces.
Best suited for headlines, short copy, and attention-grabbing applications such as posters, packaging, signage, and brand marks where a compact footprint is useful. It can also work for subheads or pull quotes when generous sizing and spacing are available.
The overall tone feels retro and upbeat, combining a friendly softness with a slightly eccentric, display-driven personality. Its narrow stance and jaunty slant add energy and motion, while the rounded shaping keeps it approachable rather than sharp or severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive condensed voice with rounded, superellipse-like forms—balancing bold presence and friendly softness. Its italic stance and compact structure suggest a focus on energetic display typography that remains cohesive and legible in short bursts.
In text, the tight counters and condensed spacing create a dense texture that reads best at larger sizes, where the distinctive rounded geometry and tall verticals are most apparent. Numerals follow the same compact, upright rhythm and match the letterforms closely for cohesive headline setting.
