A heavy, compact sans with simplified geometry and softened corners. Strokes are predominantly thick with selective thinning in joints and interior shapes, creating a crisp, poster-like contrast without becoming delicate. Counters tend toward rounded rectangles and teardrops, and many forms show a squared-off, modular construction (notably in bowls and shoulders) that keeps silhouettes bold and stable. The lowercase has a large presence with broad arches in m/n and a single-storey a and g, while capitals maintain blocky, vertical emphasis and minimal curvature.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, headlines, packaging, and bold brand marks where its compact mass and distinctive counters can carry the layout. It can work for short subheads or callouts in editorial or UI contexts when set large, but it is less ideal for long passages at small sizes due to tight apertures and dense color.
The overall tone feels retro and upbeat, with a sturdy, toy-block solidity that reads as confident rather than formal. Its rounded internal shapes and chunky terminals add friendliness, while the strong contrast and tight apertures introduce a slightly quirky, display-forward personality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, retro-leaning voice—pairing blocky geometric construction with softened corners and controlled contrast to stay expressive while remaining clean and sans in structure.
The font’s rhythm is driven by large black areas and narrow internal openings, which boosts impact but can reduce clarity in smaller sizes. Numerals follow the same chunky, rounded-rectangle logic, and punctuation appears bold and attention-grabbing alongside text.
