A very heavy, rounded sans with soft corners and broadly superelliptical curves. Strokes stay thick and even, with minimal modulation and sturdy, compact counters that keep letterforms dense and impactful. Terminals are blunt and squared-off rather than tapered, and curves (C, G, O, S) feel inflated and smooth. Lowercase forms are robust and simple, with a single-storey a and g and a short, thick-shouldered r; the numerals follow the same blocky, rounded construction for a consistent texture in display settings.
Works best for short, high-impact copy such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and bold signage where its rounded mass can read clearly from a distance. It can also suit playful UI labels or section headers, especially when set with a bit of extra tracking to open up the dense counters.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, pairing substantial weight with friendly rounding. It reads as assertive and attention-grabbing without feeling sharp or technical, leaning toward a retro, poster-like voice that feels fun and consumer-facing.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with a soft, approachable silhouette—combining blocky, compact letterforms with rounded-rectangle geometry for strong readability and a friendly display personality.
Wide joins and tight interior spaces create a dark, continuous rhythm in text, making it best when generous size and spacing preserve clarity. The dot on i/j is large and round, and the punctuation in the sample (colon, apostrophe) matches the bold, simplified geometry.
