A heavy, wide slab serif with generously rounded terminals and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and largely monoline, with blunt, pill-like slab feet and tops that create a cushioned, rubber-stamp feel rather than sharp bracketed serifs. Bowls and curves are broad and smooth, and the spacing feels open, giving letters room to breathe despite the dense weight. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g), a short-armed t with a wide cap, and simple, sturdy joins that keep the texture even in longer text.
Best suited to display settings where its width and rounded slabs can be appreciated: bold headlines, logos, packaging, and storefront-style signage. It can work for short paragraphs or punchy editorial callouts when a friendly, retro texture is desired, though the heavy forms will be most effective at moderate-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is warm and upbeat, with a nostalgic, mid-century signage and display vibe. Rounded slabs and wide proportions make it feel welcoming and slightly whimsical, while the heavy build keeps it confident and grounded.
Likely designed to combine the authority of a slab serif with a softer, more personable edge. The rounded, pill-shaped serifs and broad proportions aim for high impact without harshness, targeting attention-grabbing typography that still feels approachable.
Numerals follow the same soft, rounded slab logic, with a particularly wide, friendly 0 and curvy 2/3 forms that read smoothly at larger sizes. The font maintains a consistent terminal treatment across uppercase and lowercase, producing a cohesive, rhythmic word shape in paragraphs.
