A compact, rounded sans with heavy, even strokes and soft cornering throughout. Curves and straights resolve into rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like shapes, giving bowls and counters a squarish softness rather than pure circularity. The rhythm is tight and efficient, with short arms and terminals, minimal contrast, and sturdy joins that keep letters dark and cohesive at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same rounded geometry, with simplified forms and consistent weight that emphasize clarity over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of text where its dense color and rounded shapes can carry personality. It also works well for packaging, logos, labels, and friendly signage that benefits from a bold, softened silhouette. For long reading, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where counters and apertures have room to breathe.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a playful, slightly retro character driven by its squarish-round geometry and thick, softened terminals. It feels casual and confident, leaning toward cheerful sign lettering and packaging-friendly charm rather than corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with softened geometry—combining sturdy construction with rounded, superellipse-inspired forms for a friendly display voice. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistency across letters and numerals to create an instantly recognizable, brandable texture.
Many glyphs show distinctive, stylized decisions—such as compact apertures and rounded, blocky contours—that create a strong silhouette and high visual presence. The dense texture and softened corners help maintain legibility while keeping the voice informal and characterful.
