A heavy, rounded slab-serif with soft, blunted corners and thick, consistent strokes. Serifs are short and cushiony rather than sharp, giving terminals a pill-like finish and keeping counters relatively tight. The overall construction feels compact and sturdy, with generous curves in C/O and a generally smooth, even rhythm; widths vary noticeably across letters, helping the alphabet feel lively despite the dense weight.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and display settings where a bold, characterful voice is needed—posters, labels/packaging, storefront-style signage, and logo wordmarks. It can work for short, punchy subheads or pull quotes, but dense paragraph text may feel heavy without generous spacing.
The font reads warm and approachable, with a retro, poster-like friendliness. Its chunky presence and rounded details add a playful, slightly whimsical tone while still feeling dependable and grounded.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a friendly, rounded slab-serif personality—combining sturdy, high-ink shapes with softened terminals to evoke a classic, approachable display aesthetic.
At text sizes the dark color builds quickly due to the tight apertures and heavy strokes, which makes it especially effective when set with a bit of breathing room (tracking and leading). The numerals and lowercase share the same soft, slabbed terminal language, keeping headings and short copy visually cohesive.
