A chunky, geometric sans with rounded corners and simplified construction. Uppercase letters are drawn as double-line outlines/inline forms, while the lowercase appears as heavy solid shapes with many counters reduced or fully closed, creating a strong silhouette-first rhythm. Curves are broadly circular, joins are smooth, and strokes read as even and monolinear; several forms lean toward single-storey, highly simplified bowls and terminals. Numerals follow the same mix, with outlined figures alongside solid, more blob-like shapes, reinforcing an intentionally mixed, display-driven texture.
Works best for short display settings where its silhouette and outline effects can be appreciated—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and punchy social graphics. It can also be used for playful signage-style treatments, especially when you want mixed-case text to feel intentionally graphic rather than purely typographic.
The overall tone is playful and slightly offbeat, with a pop-retro feel that reads like signage or cutout lettering. The contrast between hollow outlined caps and dense, filled lowercase gives it a mischievous, collage-like personality that feels energetic and informal.
Designed to prioritize visual impact through simplified geometry, closed interiors, and an outline/solid interplay that creates instant contrast. The letterforms appear tuned for expressive, novelty-forward typography where character and texture matter more than conventional readability.
At smaller sizes the closed counters and heavy fills can reduce internal detail, while the outlined capitals stay airy and prominent. The alternating outline/solid treatment becomes a defining feature in mixed-case settings, producing a distinctive, attention-grabbing pattern across words.
