A heavy, rounded sans with compact proportions and softly blunted terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and curves are generous, producing full bowls and smooth joins. The letterforms lean on simplified geometry and slightly uneven, organic detailing—subtle squareness in some counters and gently irregular curve tension—giving the face a lively rhythm. Uppercase shapes are broad and assertive, while the lowercase stays sturdy and legible with a single-storey a and g, round dots, and sturdy verticals; figures are similarly bold and compact with large interior counters.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where a bold, friendly voice is needed. It also works well for playful UI accents, social graphics, and short callouts where strong color and rounded shapes improve quick recognition.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a hand-shaped, slightly bouncy feel that reads as informal and contemporary. Its weight and rounded construction make it feel confident and friendly rather than technical or severe, lending a warm, poster-like presence in short phrases.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a soft, welcoming character—pairing a bold, compact build with rounded geometry and slightly quirky detailing to stand out in attention-driven layouts.
The design emphasizes dark, even color and clear silhouettes, with distinctive, simplified forms (notably in letters like a, g, and t) that enhance personality. The combination of tight internal spaces and thick strokes favors larger sizes where counters can breathe.
