A heavy, rounded sans with superellipse-driven bowls and corners that read as softened rectangles rather than perfect circles. Strokes are thick and even, with tight internal counters in letters like B, P, R, and e, producing a compact, sturdy texture. Terminals are broadly rounded and blunt, and curves transition smoothly with little modulation, giving the alphabet a cohesive, rubbery silhouette. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (a, g) and short, stout extenders; numerals are wide and blocky with generous rounding and strong vertical presence.
Best suited to large sizes where its chunky rounding and compact counters can be appreciated without clogging up. It works well for bold headlines, playful branding, packaging, and friendly signage where a soft, substantial voice is needed.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, balancing a toy-like softness with confident, attention-grabbing mass. Its rounded geometry and dense color create a welcoming, slightly retro feel that leans more cheerful than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a warm, rounded personality—using superellipse-like construction to keep forms orderly while staying playful and approachable in display settings.
Spacing in the sample text creates a dark, poster-like typographic color, where punctuation and small details (like the dots on i/j) become prominent round accents. The design favors clear silhouettes over delicate interior detail, making it feel robust and impact-oriented.
