A heavy, rounded sans with superellipse-inspired curves and softly squared corners that create a cushiony, block-like silhouette. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and counters are small and rounded, boosting darkness and impact. The uppercase is broad-shouldered and compact, while the lowercase uses single-storey forms (notably a and g) and maintains a high, sturdy x-height. Terminals are blunt and smooth, with occasional angled joins that add a subtle cut-paper feel, and the numerals match the same squat, bold geometry for strong consistency.
Best suited to display roles such as posters, large headlines, packaging, and bold brand moments where mass and warmth are desired. It can work for short bursts of copy—taglines, callouts, labels, and signage—especially when ample size and breathing room preserve the counters and keep the rhythm open.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a toy-like softness that feels inviting rather than severe. Its chunky proportions and rounded corners suggest a retro display sensibility—confident, humorous, and attention-grabbing—while staying clean enough to read at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, geometric softness, combining strong block forms with rounded-rectangle construction for a contemporary-retro display voice. It prioritizes immediate recognizability and a cohesive, chunky texture across letters and figures.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and the dense color can build quickly in paragraphs, giving text a poster-like texture. The design favors bold silhouettes over delicate internal detail, so small sizes may lose counter clarity, whereas larger settings emphasize its distinctive rounded-rectangle character.
