A heavy, blocky sans with rounded-rectangle construction and generously softened corners. Strokes are thick and uniform, with compact counters and short apertures that keep shapes dense and graphic. Curves tend toward superelliptical forms, and joins are sturdy, giving letters a slightly inflated, cushioned feel. Overall spacing reads tight and efficient, producing a strong, poster-like texture in words and lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short statements where its mass and rounded geometry can carry the design. It works well for packaging, labels, playful branding, and bold UI moments such as hero banners or callouts. For long-form text, it’s likely most effective in brief bursts due to its compact internal spaces.
The tone is bold and approachable, leaning playful rather than formal. Its chunky silhouettes and soft corners suggest a retro, sign-painting-adjacent friendliness, with a confident, attention-grabbing presence suited to upbeat messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, softened voice—combining robust, geometric blocks with rounded corners for a modern-retro display look that stays highly legible at large sizes.
Distinctive, simplified forms (notably in rounded letters like O/C/G and the single-storey lowercase a) emphasize clarity at larger sizes, while the small counters and closed-in apertures can make long passages feel dense. Numerals match the same sturdy, rounded vocabulary and read as strong, headline-friendly figures.
