A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves and softened corners throughout. Strokes are broadly even with minimal modulation, producing dense, dark letterforms and strong color on the page. Counters are small and rounded, terminals are mostly blunt, and joins feel slightly squared, giving the shapes a stamped, block-like construction. The overall rhythm is tight and efficient, with sturdy verticals and simplified curves that keep forms highly consistent across upper and lowercase and numerals.
Best suited for display sizes where its dense weight and compact shapes can deliver maximum impact—posters, bold editorial headlines, packaging fronts, signage, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when a strong, friendly emphasis is needed, though longer text will feel heavy.
The tone is energetic and approachable, with a slightly retro, poster-like feel. Its chunky geometry reads as friendly rather than technical, adding a casual, upbeat voice to headlines and short statements.
Designed to provide an impactful, space-efficient display voice built from rounded-rectangular geometry. The intention appears to balance strong readability with a playful, retro-leaning personality by pairing blunt construction with softened curves.
Distinctive superelliptical bowls and rounded interior spaces give letters like O, D, P, and Q a cohesive family look. The figures are equally weighty and simplified, matching the letters’ compact, sign-painting-inspired solidity.
