A heavy, rounded sans with soft, fully curved terminals and corners throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal contrast and generously rounded joins that create a smooth, “pillow” silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and rounded, and the overall spacing feels compact, producing a dense, punchy texture in words. Uppercase forms are broad and simplified, while lowercase letters maintain clear, sturdy shapes with a single-storey a and g and a rounded, compact e.
Best suited to display roles where impact and friendliness are priorities—headlines, posters, packaging, and bold brand marks. It can work for short UI labels or callouts when set with enough breathing room, but is most effective in short phrases rather than dense paragraphs.
The design reads warm and informal, with a toy-like softness that feels welcoming rather than technical. Its chunky rhythm and rounded endings give it a lighthearted, optimistic tone that suits upbeat messaging and friendly brand voices.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum presence with a soft, approachable character. The consistent rounding and simplified geometry suggest an intention toward easy, friendly readability and a distinctive, upbeat display voice.
At text sizes the weight and tight counters can make the color quite dark, so it tends to perform best with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing. The numerals share the same rounded, robust construction, keeping a consistent, cohesive feel across alphanumerics.
