A heavy, rounded sans built from soft superellipse-like shapes with broad strokes and tight interior counters. Terminals are smoothly blunted, corners are generously radiused, and many joins feel inflated, producing a cushiony silhouette. The lowercase is large relative to capitals, with short-to-moderate ascenders and descenders, and a generally compact rhythm that reads as solid blocks of color. Round letters (o, e, c) are squarish-oval, bowls are roomy but not airy, and diagonals (v, w, x, y) are thick and slightly splayed, emphasizing mass over sharpness. Numerals match the same stout, rounded construction, with simple, bold forms and minimal detailing.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and social graphics where its chunky shapes can hold the page. It performs especially well when set large, where the rounded corners and compact counters read as intentional character rather than visual density.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a toy-like, poster-friendly presence. Its soft geometry and dense weight suggest fun, comfort, and a slightly retro display sensibility rather than a strict modernist voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum bold presence with a soft, friendly personality, using rounded-rectangle geometry to create a cohesive, cartoonish display voice that remains legible and consistent across letters and numerals.
Spacing appears on the tighter side, which reinforces a compact, headline-driven texture. The design favors consistent rounded modulation over crisp articulation, so counters and apertures stay relatively small at text sizes, while the silhouette remains highly distinctive at larger sizes.
