A heavy, rounded sans with broad proportions and strongly softened corners. Strokes are uniformly thick, creating compact interior counters and a dense color on the page. Curves are generously drawn and terminals read as blunt and cushioned rather than sharp. Overall spacing appears sturdy and even, with simple, geometric construction that prioritizes solidity and legibility at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where its mass and rounded forms can command attention—posters, packaging, signage, and brand marks. It also works well for playful editorial callouts or interface moments that need a bold, friendly emphasis, while long text at small sizes may feel tight due to the compact counters.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, with a warm, slightly retro feel reminiscent of bold display lettering. Its cushioned shapes and hefty presence give it a friendly confidence that feels energetic rather than formal or technical.
The design appears intended as an impact-focused display sans that balances strong presence with approachable, rounded geometry. It aims to deliver clear, energetic messaging through simple shapes, consistent stroke weight, and a soft, friendly silhouette.
The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a simple, blocky rhythm that stays consistent across letters and numerals. The numerals share the same rounded, weighty construction, with closed shapes (like 8 and 0) reading especially dense due to the thick stroke and tight counters.
