A heavy, rounded sans with smooth, inflated-looking strokes and broadly curved terminals throughout. Counters are generally open and simplified, with a compact rhythm and sturdy silhouettes that stay legible even at small sizes. Geometry leans toward circles and soft rectangles rather than sharp corners, and joins are thick and gently blended, producing an even, solid texture across words and lines.
Best suited to short, bold settings where friendliness and impact matter—headlines, posters, product packaging, and brand marks that want a soft, approachable presence. It also works well for children’s content, games, and informal UI labels where clear, rounded shapes help maintain readability and charm.
The overall tone is warm and easygoing, with a cheerful, kid-friendly friendliness that reads as casual rather than corporate. Its chunky softness gives it a comforting, inclusive feel, while the strong weight keeps it energetic and attention-getting.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with minimal sharpness: a strong display voice that stays welcoming. The rounded construction and simplified inner shapes suggest an intent to remain clear in energetic, high-contrast layouts while projecting a playful, accessible personality.
Uppercase forms are straightforward and blocky with softened corners, and the lowercase continues the same rounded logic with simple, single-storey-style shapes. Numerals match the same robust, rounded construction, making mixed text (headlines with numbers) feel consistent and cohesive.
