A heavy, soft-edged slab serif with generously rounded corners and thick, compact shapes that produce a strong, even color. Serifs are prominent and blunted, often swelling into teardrop-like terminals that give strokes a cushioned, almost molded feel. Counters are relatively tight and rounded, with simple, sturdy joins and minimal modulation, keeping the forms solid and highly legible at display sizes. Overall proportions feel broad and stable, with a slightly bouncy rhythm created by the rounded terminals and stout stems.
Well suited for bold headlines in posters, signage, and promotional graphics where a friendly, attention-grabbing voice is needed. It also fits branding and packaging that aims for a nostalgic or handcrafted feel, and works effectively for logos and short wordmarks where its chunky slabs become a distinctive silhouette.
The font reads warm and approachable, with a cheerful retro tone that feels reminiscent of mid-century advertising and packaging. Its rounded slabs and inflated silhouettes add a humorous, friendly character while staying bold and confident rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a soft, approachable personality—combining sturdy slab-serif structure with rounded, inflated terminals for a playful display look.
The numerals match the letters with the same soft, weighty construction and rounded interior spaces, maintaining consistent texture across mixed text. In longer samples, the dense stroke weight and tight counters create a strong headline presence, best suited to short phrases where the chunky forms can breathe.
