A heavy, rounded-rectangle sans with tightly packed counters and a distinctly squared-off, superelliptical skeleton. Curves resolve into broad, soft corners rather than true circles, giving letters a sturdy, modular feel. Strokes are consistently thick with only subtle contrast, and terminals are blunt, producing a strong, even texture in words. The lowercase is compact with short ascenders and a single-storey “a” and “g,” while the numerals and caps keep the same chunky, poster-like rhythm.
This font is best suited to large-size typography where its chunky shapes and rounded corners can read clearly—headlines, posters, merchandise graphics, and bold brand marks. It can also work well on packaging and social graphics where a friendly, high-impact voice is needed.
The overall tone is loud and approachable: confident, playful, and slightly retro. Its soft corners keep the weight from feeling aggressive, while the dense forms and narrow apertures add a punchy, attention-grabbing presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a softened, geometric construction—combining billboard-level weight with rounded-rect forms for a modern-retro, approachable display style.
In text settings the dark color builds quickly, so spacing and line breaks matter—this face reads best when allowed generous size and breathing room. The superelliptical rounding is very consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a cohesive, geometric personality.
