A heavy, rounded sans with chunky strokes and softly blunted corners. Forms are built from broad curves and stout verticals, with small counters that stay open enough for display use. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short extenders, contributing to a dense, compact texture. Letter construction has a slightly quirky, hand-cut feel: diagonals and joins appear simplified and sturdy, and terminals often feel scooped or notched rather than sharply finished.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and attention-grabbing signage where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It also fits playful branding, packaging, and entertainment contexts, especially when used in short phrases, titles, and bold callouts.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, leaning playful and slightly retro. Its exaggerated weight and rounded geometry give it a friendly, cartoon-adjacent personality that feels energetic and informal.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with friendly, rounded forms and a compact, energetic rhythm. The shapes prioritize character and presence over fine detail, aiming for expressive display typography that remains clear at large sizes.
At text sizes the strong color and tight inner spaces create a compact rhythm, so it reads best when given comfortable tracking and line spacing. The figures and punctuation match the same robust, rounded construction, keeping the set visually consistent in headlines and short blocks.
