A heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and broadly circular bowls. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a dense, high-impact color on the page. Counters are relatively small and simplified, and many joins and terminals resolve into blunt, rounded ends rather than sharp cuts. The overall construction leans geometric—especially in O/C/G and the numerals—while keeping slightly squarish proportions and sturdy verticals for stability.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and bold branding moments where strong silhouette and immediate impact matter. It also works well for signage and social graphics when set large, especially with a bit of extra spacing to keep counters from filling in visually. For long text, it is more effective as an accent or display layer than a primary reading face.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, with a playful, slightly retro poster feel. Its rounded geometry and compact counters make it feel friendly rather than aggressive, even at very large weights. The overall impression is confident, chunky, and attention-grabbing.
This design appears intended as a friendly, geometric display sans that maximizes presence through thick strokes and rounded forms. The simplified shapes and compact counters prioritize punchy silhouettes and quick recognition, aiming for modern, approachable boldness in branding and titling.
In the lowercase, the single-storey forms and simple shapes reinforce an informal, contemporary voice. The punctuation and numerals match the same rounded, blocky rhythm, helping headings and short messages stay visually cohesive. Because of the tight interior spaces, clarity improves notably when given generous tracking or used at larger sizes.
