A heavy, rounded sans with a pronounced rightward slant and broad proportions. Strokes stay largely monoline with softened terminals and generous curves, giving counters a compact, slightly squashed feel at this weight. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g” and generally wide bowls, while the uppercase keeps simple, geometric silhouettes with rounded corners. Numerals are sturdy and highly simplified, matching the same soft, inflated stroke endings and dense interior spacing.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and bold brand statements where the rounded shapes can read large and clear. It can also work for playful UI moments (buttons, badges, labels) when used at sizes that keep counters open and letterspacing comfortable.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a sporty, cartoon-leaning energy. Its chunky curves and consistent slant feel conversational and lively rather than formal, suggesting warmth and momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum friendliness and visibility through inflated, rounded forms and a consistent italic lean. It prioritizes expressive, energetic display typography over restrained text neutrality.
The strong weight and tight counters create a dark, high-impact color in text, especially in longer lines. Round punctuation and the ampersand follow the same softened, informal construction, helping the font read as cohesive in display settings.
